Matt Eldredge Email & Phone Number

At the risk of sounding overly confident, I feel that I demonstrate both the leadership and potential needed for any Benefits Administrator position. In my time with Simplot I believe I have created many trusting relationships within our HR organization and have advanced quickly. I’ve emerged as a leader in the Benefits Department. These accomplishments were all achieved during a time of constant change and restructuring. Throughout, I have always believed in having a positive attitude, and I have taken pride in my own work and in the product of my employer. I look forward to a challenging career where I will continue to learn and advance to even higher levels.
