Assistant Shop Foreman ProWay Livestock Equipment | Vernon, Texas At ProWay Livestock Equipment, we build more than livestock equipment - we build solutions that help livestock producers work smarter, safer, and more efficiently. Every product we manufacture is designed to improve the safety, profitability, and productivity of our customers' operations while supporting low-stress livestock handling and better outcomes for both producers and their livestock. As a family-owned and operated company, we're committed to building the highest quality equipment, investing in our people, and creating a business that will serve the livestock industry for generations. Leadership Development Opportunity As ProWay continues to grow, we're looking for an Assistant Shop Foreman to join our manufacturing team as part of a planned leadership transition. This position is designed for someone who wants more than just the next job - they're looking for the opportunity to grow into a key leadership role within our company. Rather than stepping directly into the Shop Foreman position, you'll spend your introductory period working alongside our experienced Shop Foreman, learning every phase of our production operation while gradually assuming increasing leadership responsibilities. You'll gain hands-on experience throughout our manufacturing process - including warehousing, cutting, forming, bending, welding, assembly, packaging, shipping, scheduling, and production coordination, while building relationships with the team you'll eventually lead. If you're someone who enjoys working with your hands, solving problems, helping others succeed, and leading by example, this is an opportunity to build a long-term career while helping shape the future of ProWay. Key Responsibilities As part of your leadership development, you'll work alongside the Shop Foreman and leadership team to develop the skills and experience needed to successfully lead our manufacturing operation. Throughout the transition, you'll progressively take ownership of responsibilities such as: Building a culture where safety is non-negotiable and employees take pride in producing quality equipment. Leading, coaching, and developing production team members through daily support and clear communication. Coordinating daily production activities and helping prioritize workflow to meet customer commitments. Learning production planning, scheduling, material flow, and inventory coordination. Working with office staff to ensure materials are available to support production schedules. Identifying opportunities to improve manufacturing efficiency through practical problem solving and lean manufacturing principles. Troubleshooting production challenges and implementing effective solutions. Responding to quality concerns and supporting continuous improvement initiatives. Maintaining a safe, organized, and efficient manufacturing environment. Learning equipment maintenance expectations and shop organization standards. Participating in interviewing, onboarding, and developing future members of the ProWay team. Working closely with company leadership to continually improve manufacturing performance, product quality, and customer satisfaction. Qualifications We're looking for someone with a strong manufacturing background who is ready to take the next step into leadership.

Preferred qualifications include:

Trade school education or equivalent industry experience. Extensive experience in a production manufacturing and metal fabrication environment. Experience with welding, sheet metal fabrication, press brake operations, and general fabrication. Previous experience leading people, serving as a lead hand, crew leader, or supervisor is preferred, but candidates with strong leadership potential will also be considered. Hands-on leadership style with a willingness to spend the majority of each day on the shop floor working alongside the team. Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and fabrication prints. Experience evaluating weld quality and maintaining high workmanship standards. Strong organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills. A positive attitude, strong work ethic, and a genuine desire to learn, grow, and invest in others. Commitment to continuous improvement and delivering quality workmanship.
