About Your Role

As a Manufacturing Supervisor, you'll lead and support your shift crew to deliver exceptional results across Safety, Productivity, Cost, Quality, Delivery, and Morale. You'll play a critical role in implementing Continuous Improvement practices, developing your team, and ensuring smooth, efficient operations. Reporting directly to the Manufacturing Manager, this position is instrumental in shaping the culture of safety and operational excellence on the shop floor, especially during off-shifts when you'll be the primary on-site leader.

What You'll Do

You will take full ownership of your shift's performance, leading a team of hourly union employees through 12-hour night shifts on a rotating schedule. You'll be accountable for meeting daily production targets by effectively allocating resources—including people, materials, equipment, and systems—to ensure operations run safely, efficiently, and cost-effectively. A key part of your role will be coaching, mentoring, and developing your team to meet current performance standards while preparing them for future growth. You will regularly communicate site goals and expectations, create a culture of accountability, and reinforce safety, quality, and continuous improvement initiatives across your shift.

In this position, you will play a critical role in maintaining plant productivity during off-hours by acting as the primary decision-maker for issue resolution. This includes coordinating with key departments such as Maintenance, Planning, Quality, and Warehousing to manage equipment breakdowns, material shortages, staffing adjustments, or any operational challenges. You will also oversee timekeeping and attendance accuracy in Dayforce, ensuring that hours, overtime, vacation, and absences are properly documented and employees are paid correctly.

In addition to daily operations, you'll be responsible for upholding and interpreting the collective bargaining agreement (CBA), helping foster a respectful and collaborative labor environment. You'll lead root cause investigations into safety, quality, and environmental incidents using structured methodologies and play a hands-on role in implementing World Class Manufacturing (WCM) principles to drive long-term performance improvements. Your leadership will help cultivate a high-performance culture rooted in safety, efficiency, and employee engagement.

About You

To thrive in this role, you must bring at least 3 years of experience in a supervisory or manufacturing operations management position, ideally within a unionized environment. You have a solid understanding of World Class Manufacturing (WCM), Safety, Health & Environment (SHE), Quality, and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs), and you're proficient in MS Office tools like Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.

You're an effective communicator with strong interpersonal skills, able to build collaborative relationships across diverse teams and stakeholders. Your leadership style motivates and develops others, driving continuous improvement and fostering a positive, inclusive work culture. You are skilled at managing conflict constructively while maintaining professionalism.

You demonstrate a strong ability to manage multiple priorities, solve problems proactively, and drive change by gathering the necessary resources and knowledge to meet deadlines with accuracy and professionalism. A bachelor's degree is preferred, supporting your capability to lead with both technical expertise and strategic insight.
