For 130 years, Samson, the worldwide leader in high-performance cordage, has paved the road to success with innovation, quality, and service. Samson knows that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts: From the offices in Ferndale, Wash., to the manufacturing floor in Lafayette, La., our people are what make the difference in the product and to the customer.

A career at Samson is challenging, rewarding, and satisfying. We are passionate about providing the highest quality products available to the industries we serve and are committed to providing unparalled, world-class customer service. We accomplish our goals when each individual performs to his/her full potential while contributing as a valuable team player with others in the organization.

As an employee of Samson, you are encouraged to reach new heights with your career by participating in continuing education, professional organizations, and creating an environment that welcomes “outside the box” thinking. Our philosophy works: the average length of service at Samson is 10 years, with 20% of employees serving more than 20 years. We recently celebrated 25 employees who have been with the company for 30 or more years; one of which is our president, who started his career in the plant.

Samson’s culture blends longevity with progress by taking the traditions of rope making into new territories. Committed to a long-term strategic plan, Samson is diligent to “plan our work and work our plan.” Strategic goals and initiatives are reviewed annually to properly plan for changing markets and economic trends. This keen attention to our business is critical to our long-term success. Communicating this plan throughout the organization is how we know how our contributions make a difference each day we come to work. Whether you work in R&D, customer service, human resources, or in one of our plants, you will be part of a company that is building the history of tomorrow.
