Job description

About us

Blodgett, a Middleby company, is the leading manufacturer of commercial ovens in the world. Restaurants, fast-food chains, hotels, hospitals, institutions, small businesses and large corporations alike rely on the Blodgett name. Ovens have been in demand overseas since the late 1800s – long before global markets and international trade became the focus of our modern world.

Despite widespread success Blodgett has never strayed from its original goal or its roots. Blodgett is located in Essex Junction, Vermont – just a short drive from where the company founder and namesake forged a cooking revolution in cast iron over 150 years ago. And while the times and foodservice needs have changed since then, our commitment to building the best remains the same.

Blodgett offers many interesting career opportunities, all of which encourage growth and development and contribute to the success of the company. The development and promotion of talent is a high priority at Blodgett.
