  • •Improve production results. Monitor production and quality data, troubleshoot problems, and support efforts to reduce downtime and scrap.
  • •Maintain accurate records. Review production documentation, verify timekeeping, and manage training and employee records.
  • •Work across departments. Partner with production leadership, maintenance, quality, and HR to resolve issues and support employees.

We’re looking for someone who brings

  • •Approximately five years of leadership experience in a manufacturing environment.
  • •Demonstrated success setting expectations, holding employees accountable, and supporting their development.
  • •Strong safety awareness, sound judgment, and practical problem-solving skills.
  • •Clear communication and the ability to manage competing priorities.
  • •Strong computer skills, including Microsoft Word and Excel.
  • •Dependability and availability to work the night-shift schedule, with additional shift coverage for vacations or absences as needed.

Experience with compounding, extrusion, or blending, along with CPR and First Aid certification, is a plus.

This position offers a permanent night schedule with four consecutive days off during each regular work cycle. Scheduled workdays move throughout the week and include weekends. You’ll have the opportunity to take ownership of your shift, build your team’s capabilities, and make visible improvements in daily operations.
