VONORE, Tenn., July 7, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Genera, a manufacturer of domestically sourced and produced ag-based pulp and molded fiber products, is hiring for multiple positions at its new state-of-the-art East Tennessee facility in preparation for the launch of full commercial production later this year.

Genera is currently accepting applications for multiple positions, including electrical and instrument technicians, lab technicians, maintenance technicians, molded fiber technicians, operating technicians and packing/handling/warehouse technicians. All current openings are full-time and include paid time off, holidays, medical, dental, vision and 401(k).

"This is an opportunity to be part of a company that's offering advanced solutions for the paper and packaging industries while providing new market opportunities for farmers in East Tennessee at the same time," said Keith Brazzell, Genera's COO.
