"Expanding my professional networking within the organization has been a key goal. Being chosen for the MyVoice Champion Team in 2024 marked a significant milestone.

I value employees' feedback from internal survey results and collaborative problem-solving to drive impactful lasting change within the organization.

Chelsea
Senior Operations Manager, Warehouse and Logistics
"My time at IDEXX began as a simple job but quickly blossomed into a rewarding career, marked by a noticeable improvement in my work-life balance. I even joined the HEART program in April 2024 and the experience that followed far surpassed my expectations. Through this experience, I’ve grown from someone who lacked self-assurance to someone stepping into a leadership role within the manufacturing support warehousing organization at IDEXX. I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity, as it has helped me develop both personally and professionally. Just a few months ago, I might have seen a leadership role as the ultimate goal, but now I’m excited to see just how far I can go."

Zack Supply Chain Lead Sr II 
"I joined IDEXX in 2006 as a temporary employee. I came from a background of computers and instrument repair and landed in ISOL repairing VetTest. I have had many opportunities here at IDEXX, like having the ability to work my way up to Team Lead II. In this process, I have grown with the company with the ability to learn parts of many roles outside of my job, which has shown me the many career options there are at IDEXX."

Kim Quality Supervisor II
"I started at IDEXX in 2007 as a temp, working in R&D. After the team was reassigned, I traveled around the company as a temp, working in the manufacturing and service departments. A full-time position was open in the PC aisle and I applied, having a background in that field from the USMC. My supervisor saw potential in me and worked with me to develop other skills that would help me succeed. Quarterly goals were assigned, and we met consistently."

FAQ

About the different departments in IDEXX Operations

Engineering
The way our team approaches problem-solving and processes is compelling. It’s a heavy Lean and Six Sigma structured problem-solving culture. There is a whole team of people dedicated to it, including a rotational program. IDEXX even has its own internal Lean certification and training program.
Manufacturing
Our manufacturing facilities are safe, bright, and clean environments. The teams that work in this area of Operations are very innovative and work consistent schedules with no weekend work. Without the skilled expertise and commitment to quality of our manufacturing employees, we couldn't get the products out that our customers need.

Key IDEXX manufacturing sites are in Westbrook, ME, Scarborough, ME, and Roswell, GA.
Warehousing

Our warehouses in Maine (located in Westbrook, Scarborough, and Portland) and Memphis, TN are unique warehouses. Employees internalize material requests from production areas to keep manufacturing moving along, so there’s lots of variety: everything from handling vials of chemicals to pallets of plastics. It’s not just picking, packing and other more traditional tasks. Employees perform all functions of inventory control and materials. 

(Most of our warehouses are even air-conditioned!)
