Seltzer’s Smokehouse Meats Hiring for Accounts Receivable & Customer Service Specialist at Palmyra, PA Full Time

For over 120 years, our team of artisan craftsmen have taken great pride in crafting our Lebanon Bologna with the same care and tradition using all-wooden smokehouses & real hard-wood smoke. As the world’s largest producer of Lebanon Bologna, our 4th generation ownership believes that the care and attention to detail our artisan craftsmen put into creating Seltzer’s products is what helps us maintain our reputation as one of the premier smokehouses in the country. We only use 100% lean beef, we don’t use fillers, we don’t use artificial flavors and we don’t add liquid smoke to our Lebanon Bologna.

We believe in a “people first” culture where respect and quality are never sacrificed for profit. With our industry-leading standards for quality and performance, combined with a fun, safe, and inclusive environment, it’s no wonder many of our team members have been a part of the Seltzer’s family for 20, 30, and even 40 years.
