Why FMC

Diverse challenges -- not many positions offer the opportunity to work with a wide variety of operations like we have here in Wyoming.

Robust safety culture -- we've taken a proactive approach to ensuring safety and health in these operations. The Safety and Health staff is viewed as business partners, and we are pursuing an aggressive strategy to achieve zero injuries. Our people get it: if it's not safe, don't do it.

Stability and growth -- FMC has been in business 127 years; our company is diversified across agricultural, industrial, and specialty chemicals; we're active in markets across the globe; and we are financially strong. Our senior leadership recently unveiled a plan for FMC to double in size by 2015 and we have a number of corporate-wide initiatives under way to drive that growth.

Excellent compensation -- in addition to a competitive salary we offer comprehensive benefits that include all you would expect plus some pleasant surprises, such as retirement savings and 401(k) plans, flexible spending accounts and more. Benefits packages go into effect the date you start.

Why Green River

Industry Leading Operations

FMC Green River lies in the Green River Basin in the southwest corner of Wyoming. With 850 people in multiple operations, we are the largest employer in Sweetwater County. We mine trona and process it into sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate and sodium hydroxide for our customers, who use these materials in a variety of applications including glass, detergents, pulp and paper, food processing, battery recycling, and others.

Here we operate the world's largest trona mine and soda ash plant, with an annual soda ash capacity of 4.85 million tons. FMC is the industry leader in natural soda ash, and we have developed unique innovations in mining, processing and other areas here in Green River.

The complex is located about 25 miles northwest of the town of Green River, and our employees also live in Rock Springs and the Bridger Valley, which are both about 40 miles from the complex. FMC runs bus services between the complex and each of these locations.

Great place to live

Green River is home to approximately 12,000 residents, with a small-town community culture and an excellent public school system. The cost of living, including housing, is well below the national average; in fact, Wyoming has no income tax. This is high, dry desert, about 6,300 feet above sea level. Winters are cold, but if you immediately picture deep snowdrifts when you think of Wyoming, that's not the case in Green River. We don't get too much snow right here, but some of Utah's best ski resorts are only about 2.5 hours away (think Park City, Deer Valley, Alta, Winter Olympics...).

In fact, we enjoy all kinds of outdoor sports such as boating, fishing, hunting, hiking, skiing, kayaking, even whitewater rafting in a variety of nearby locations:
  • Flaming Gorge Reservoir is right down the road, providing our residents with boating, fishing, and camping experiences.
  • Yellowstone National Park and Jackson Hole are about 3 hours north, set amid a backdrop of lush forest and impressive mountains, with a host of opportunities for outdoor excursions, culture, dining, and sightseeing.
  • Salt Lake City, Utah is approximately 3 hours away to satisfy the "big-city" needs you may have.
And once you're here we think you'll agree: Wyoming residents are among the friendliest people you'll meet. Relocation assistance is available.
