About Us

MNL is a full-service ecological restoration company dedicated to Healing the Earth. Our services include native seed and plant production, shoreline and wetland restoration, prescribed burns, conservation grazing, vegetation management, and ecological consulting. We also support solar and infrastructure projects with pollinator-friendly practices and land stewardship expertise.

Our seed division produces, processes, and distributes one of the largest selections of native seed in the region. From cleaned seed to final shipment, the fulfillment team supports restoration contractors, government agencies, conservation organizations, retailers, wholesale partners, and other customers with accurate, high-quality seed products.

The Opportunity

The Warehouse & Fulfillment Supervisor leads MNL’s centralized seed fulfillment operation, ensuring native seed orders are blended, packaged, and shipped accurately, efficiently, and on schedule. This role provides day-to-day leadership to the fulfillment team while owning the warehouse systems, inventory controls, seed-lot traceability, and shipping processes that support seed sales across the company.

This position is accountable for the reliability of the operation from the time cleaned seed enters the facility through final shipment to the customer. You’ll establish priorities, maintain visibility into inventory and order flow, resolve operational issues, and improve systems as seed volume continues to grow.

Success in this role requires more than supervising daily tasks. It requires the ability to understand the full operation, establish consistent processes, maintain accurate inventory, develop employees, and make decisions that improve quality, throughput, and long-term capacity.
