Meet Jeff and Monica, Operations Production Professionals
Jeff Stenzel is a senior manufacturing manager at Post’s oldest and largest plant in Battle Creek, Mich.—the unofficial “cereal capital of the world.” He manages many aspects of the manufacturing plant’s operations and the Post cereal cooking process, from the machinery to the team members who operate it.
“It’s really about enabling people to do well in their jobs, figuring out what the roadblocks are in the plant here and knocking them out of the way and helping people produce the cereal that we need to produce for our customers efficiently,” says Jeff.
It takes a dedicated team that can effectively work together to keep a manufacturing plant like the one in Battle Creek producing hundreds of millions of pounds of cereal each year.
