About Stinker Founded in 1936, Stinker is a family-owned convenience retailer serving communities throughout Idaho, Colorado, and Wyoming. We got our name in a fight. In 1936, a 20-year-old named Farris Lind opened a service station in Twin Falls and started selling gasoline for less than the major oil companies thought he should. They didn’t take it well. When one of them told a newspaper that Farris Lind was a real stinker, he took it as a compliment, put the word on his stations, and drew a skunk wearing red boxing gloves. So the gloves came first, and they were never a joke. Fearless Farris put them on because he spent his career punching above his weight on behalf of the customer, and because a small Idaho company that refuses to be pushed around has to be willing to fight for what it believes in. Ninety years later, we still fight for our employees and our guests. That spirit continues to shape how we work, how we serve our communities, and what we look for in the people who join our team. Our purpose is simple: To make our world a better place by being a bright spot in the lives we touch, one employee, one guest, and one community at a time. We believe our success starts with our people. That means developing others, building trust, welcoming new ideas, recognizing contributions, holding ourselves accountable, and having the courage to do what’s right. We still know how to have fun — our mascot is a skunk, after all. But take a close look at Pete: he’s got his gloves on. Required Qualifications Strong organizational and case-management skills with the ability to manage multiple claims, deadlines, and follow-up activities simultaneously. Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to explain processes clearly and work effectively with employees, leaders, medical providers, insurance partners, and other stakeholders. Strong attention to detail and ability to maintain accurate documentation and confidential records. Ability to handle sensitive employee matters professionally, objectively, and with appropriate discretion. Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to identify issues, gather information, and coordinate appropriate next steps. Proficiency with Microsoft Office and the ability to learn and effectively use HR, claims management, and other company systems. Successfully complete required background review.
