Interim Operations Director: It was a critical point in an expansion and a well-established craft brewery was in immediate need of First Key’s interim staffing service to fulfill the temporarily vacant role of Operations Director.

Interim Packaging Engineer: A regional craft brewery was installing a new packaging line and found itself in an overflow situation where the brewery Packaging Manager could not manage the installation and startup, while running the day-to-day packaging operation.
