Human Resources Representative
WHO WE ARE:
At Mohawk, we embrace the idea that the medium is just as important as the message in creating the ideal experience for any audience. It’s the cornerstone of our brand and the hallmark of building emotional connections.
We know that behind every great creation is a story. Our own began in 1931, during the tumult of the Great Depression, when George O’Connor took a chance and bought a paper mill in Upstate New York. Inspired by the ideals of the Arts & Crafts Movement, he strove to create paper that was as enduring as it was beautiful, a guiding philosophy that has flourished for four generations.
Today we serve the needs of designers, brand-owners and printers in more than 60 countries with a vast array of finely crafted materials designed to make print more beautiful, effective and memorable. And because we care about the environment and future generations, we source pulp from sustainable forests, conserve water, and harness wind power for our mills.
Mohawk is a family-owned business and we consider the entire team to be part of the family. Our business is built on relationships, handshake-level trust, communication and honesty among the people we work with. The fact that Mohawk has endured for four generations means we make decisions and innovate new products for the long term, not just the next quarter.
