Job Description:
OverviewAt ADS, no idea is off limits, and we celebrate
creativity and bold moves. For more than 50 years ADS has been
manufacturing a variety of innovative and environmentally friendly
alternatives to traditional materials. Headquartered in Hilliard,
Ohio, we are a multi-billion dollar stormwater management company,
manufacturing pipe and ancillary products. What does that mean?
When it storms, we capture rain with our drain basins, convey it
with pipe, store it using chambers and finally treat it with our
water quality products, before safely returning water back to the
environment. We handle, what we call, the entire lifecycle of a
raindrop. Our products help prevent flooding, which increases
quality of life for people living in large cities, suburbs, and
rural towns. We also believe in creating a circular economy and are
the largest plastic recycling company in North America. We use
plastic shampoo and detergent bottles to create pipe, diverting
over 500 million pounds of plastic from landfills every year. ADS
operates a global network of over 60 manufacturing plants and 30
distribution centers. We have amazing stories to tell, and we need
your help getting our story out there. To learn more about ADS,
