Specialty oleochemicals manufacturer scaling plant reliability and maintenance
Emery Oleochemicals runs a capital-intensive chemical manufacturing operation anchored in SAP, industrial control systems (Siemens, Honeywell, Allen-Bradley), and lab automation (HPLC, LC-MS, ICP-OES). The hiring surge is concentrated in engineering and manufacturing roles—half the open positions—signaling a push to reduce downtime and improve plant reliability. Active projects span mechanical integrity, preventive maintenance, and control-system upgrades, paired with pain points around uptime and root-cause analysis.
Emery Oleochemicals manufactures specialty chemicals derived primarily from natural oils and fats, serving formulators and manufacturers across plastics, automotive, lubricants, coatings, and food & beverage. The company operates through four business platforms: Agro Green, Bio-Lubricants, Eco-Friendly Polyols, and Green Polymer Additives. Founded in 1840 in Cincinnati, Ohio, the company is privately held with 201–500 employees. Operations are anchored in SAP S/4HANA for enterprise resource planning and a mix of distributed control systems (DeltaV, Siemens, Honeywell) for manufacturing automation. The company maintains Technical Development Centers of Excellence to support custom formulation and regulatory compliance.
