This is a hands-on leadership opportunity for someone who enjoys coaching others, solving problems, and creating a culture of accountability and collaboration. You will serve as a key link between frontline employees and production leadership, helping teams perform at their best while maintaining high standards of safety and quality.
Working closely with supervisors, shift leaders, and cross-functional partners, you will help identify opportunities for improvement, remove obstacles, and support operational success through training, communication, and process excellence.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Lead and support daily manufacturing operations by coordinating work assignments, balancing resources, and helping the team achieve key Safety, Quality, Delivery, and Cost (SQDC) objectives.
- Coach, train, and develop team members through ongoing feedback, cross-training, performance support, and skill development initiatives.
- Facilitate root cause problem solving (RCPS) and continuous improvement activities, using operational tools and data to eliminate waste, improve processes, and strengthen team performance.
- Monitor compliance with production processes, quality standards, and 5S practices, taking action to address issues and maintain operational excellence.
- Serve as a trusted escalation point for production challenges, including equipment, quality, and workflow issues, while supporting supervisors and acting as the designated leader when needed.
What We're Looking For
-
High school diploma or GED required.
-
At least 2 years of manufacturing experience, ideally within a production environment similar to the area being supported.
-
Demonstrated leadership, coaching, and team development skills with the ability to motivate and guide others toward shared goals.
-
Effective written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to collaborate across teams and provide clear direction.
-
Ability to troubleshoot operational issues, make sound decisions in a fast-paced manufacturing environment, and maintain a strong focus on safety, quality, and continuous improvement.
What You'll Get from Us
- We promote from within and support your learning with mentoring, training, and access to global opportunities.
