Ken Ray is a Quality Engineer and Food Safety Manager at Avantor. Colleagues describe them as "Ken and I worked have worked together in two different companies. When I had my first food production role many years ago at H. J. Heinz, he mentored me in all aspects of food safety. He was a patient teacher skilled at explaining the “whys” about good manufacturing practices, sanitation, standard operating procedures, and critical control points. He helped me build my knowledge base as I transitioned from working in plants that manufactured building materials, to plants that prepared and packaged food. Later in my career, we had the opportunity to work together again at Mom’s Meals. As a Vice President, he was responsible to put all food safety plans in place for the entire company, and ensure those plans were executed flawlessly in all locations. Due to his many years of quality and food safety experience, he is capable of working in any food company and making a rapid impact at the highest level of the organization. I greatly respect Ken’s knowledge and work ethic."
