Job with Creamery Creek Farms
Not just someone who can do the job, though that matters, but someone who genuinely cares about the work, the customers, and building something that lasts.
The Role We're Creating
This is a brand new position: Inventory & Customer Experience Manager. It sits right at the heart of everything we do, connecting customers with the food they love, making sure orders go out right, and building systems that help our small farm serve families better.
You'll be the person customers talk to when they have questions. You'll pack boxes with care. You'll help us track inventory, improve our processes, and solve the little problems before they become big ones.
This isn't a desk job, and it's not pure manual labor either. It's both. Some days you're answering emails and updating the website. Other days you're in the freezer packing orders or loading up for a farmers market. You'll shift between tasks, roll with the seasons, and pitch in where needed.
That's small farm life.
Who We're Looking For
You don't need a farming background or a fancy degree. We care more about how you think, how you treat people, and whether you take pride in doing things right.
You might be a great fit if:
- You genuinely enjoy helping people and solving their problems
- You notice details, the kind of person who sees when something's off and fixes it
- You're organized but flexible (because farm life doesn't always go to plan)
- You like building systems, not just following them
- You can handle both customer emails and physical work in the same day
- You communicate clearly and kindly, especially when things get tricky
- You're the type who shows up, does the work, and doesn't need constant direction
The practical stuff:
- Valid driver's license (you'll occasionally do local deliveries)
- Comfortable lifting heavy things and working in cold spaces (freezers, coolers)
- Experience in food, retail, e-commerce, logistics, or hospitality is helpful but not required
What the Work Actually Looks Like
Customer Experience: You'll be a primary point of contact, answering questions via email, website chat, and occasional phone calls. Helping people choose the right cuts, understand shipping timelines, and feel taken care of. When something goes wrong (and it will sometimes), you'll handle it with care and common sense.
Packing & Shipping: Monday and Tuesday are packing days. You'll pack orders with accuracy and pride, coordinate shipping schedules, and keep our cold-chain supplies in order. Wednesdays are for local deliveries.
Inventory & Systems: You'll help us build real inventory management systems—tracking products between the freezer, farmers markets, and online sales. Working inside Shopify to keep things accurate. Forecasting what we need for processing and promotions. Not just patching problems, but designing systems that actually scale.
And everything in between: This is a small family operation. Some days you'll help with farmers markets, special events, or whatever needs doing. Flexibility is part of the deal.
The Details
Full-time, 40 hours per week
Pay: $20-25/hour depending on experience
Primarily on-farm in Bangor, Wisconsin (some remote work possible for customer service tasks)
Schedule:
Monday & Tuesday: Required (packing and shipping days)
Wednesday: Required (local deliveries)
Other farmers market or event days as scheduled
Mostly weekdays with occasional weekends during busy seasons
Note: This is an agricultural position, overtime exempt under ag employment rules.
Why This Role Matters
We're not just selling meat. We're connecting families to where their food comes from. We're building trust, one order at a time.
This job is about protecting that trust while helping us grow thoughtfully. You'll have real input, real responsibility, and the chance to shape how this farm serves people for years to come.
If you want work that feels grounded, genuine, and meaningful, work where you can see the impact of what you do, this might be your place.
How to Apply

In your note, tell us:
- Why this role interests you
- A bit about your background
- When you could start
We're accepting applications on a rolling basis until we find the right person.
