About Tjoapack

Tjoapack is a global contract packaging organization (CPO) specializing in pharmaceutical packaging and supply chain management. With more than 30 years of experience, we process millions of medicine packages every year for over 40 countries worldwide. Headquartered in the Netherlands and operating in Clinton, TN since 2021, our mission is to make the pharmaceutical supply chain safer, more reliable, and focused on patient well-being.

The Role

As a Packaging Operator , you’ll be a key part of the production process—helping to package pharmaceutical products safely, efficiently, and in compliance with strict quality standards. This hybrid role combines traditional line operation duties with significant involvement in quality assurance, label technologies and stock coordination functions. You’ll assist with inspections, documentation, and inventory handling to support seamless production and regulatory compliance.

This position is ideal for someone who enjoys hands-on work, values precision, and thrives in a collaborative environment where every task contributes to delivering safe medicines to patients worldwide.

A Day in the Life ????

As a Packaging Operator at Tjoapack, every day offers variety and purpose. You’ll start your shift reviewing the day’s production schedule. Once production begins, you’ll work hands-on with our packaging equipment—verifying components, performing visual checks, and supporting changeovers to keep operations running smoothly. Between batches, you may inspect materials for accuracy, reconcile counts, or assist with line clearances and cleaning activities to maintain compliance with GMP standards. As a stock coordinator, you are responsible for ensuring all materials, components, and documentation are ready for the line. Throughout the day, you’ll collaborate closely with Quality and Warehouse teams, taking ownership of both quality checks and stock coordination tasks to ensure every order is packaged precisely and ready on time. In this hybrid role, your attention to detail, adaptability, and teamwork directly impact patient safety and the success of our operation.
