COMPLIANCE
Must be legally authorized to work in the United States without current or future sponsorship requirements If you are an operations leader who wants to escape unstable production volumes, shrinking corporate benefits, and high-turnover shop floors, this people-first leadership seat is built for you. We are a privately held, ultra-stable, and vertically integrated packaging manufacturer celebrating over 90 years of continuous market success. With a national footprint of more than 4,200 employees across 36 facilities, we are actively expanding. Following a recent $100 million local facility upgrade, we have officially broken ground on yet another massive plant expansion at this location. We are a company built on long-term growth, and our exceptional employee retention numbers prove that our people choose to plant their roots here for the long haul. This specific opening is a deeply rewarding, people-focused department leadership role. While technical manufacturing knowledge is valuable, your ability to build a cohesive, motivated, and high-performing floor team matters just as much. The total rewards package we provide is genuinely rare in modern manufacturing: up to 7 weeks of annual vacation, a fully company-funded pension plan (fully vested after 5 years), a matching 401(k), premium medical coverage, and exclusive company-sponsored healthcare access. While the rotating 12-hour schedule requires full dedication, it is completely structured and predictable, automatically rewards your weekend blocks with premium pay, and guarantees you a full 6-day mini-vacation every three weeks. What You Will Be Doing Providing high-visibility daily shift leadership to a skilled team of 25-30 hourly production employees within a unionized converting and finishing environment Administering the collective bargaining agreement fairly, enforcing plant safety policies, and managing employee performance, attendance, and development Driving robust quality assurance initiatives, including managing in-process QC audits, coordinating corrective actions, and collaborating with our internal Technical team Coordinating and executing all departmental safety program requirements to promote a proactive, safety-first culture on every single shift Overseeing routine preventive maintenance program execution and partnering closely with the Maintenance crew to maximize equipment reliability Managing departmental operating supplies and inventory rotation to actively control floor costs and minimize material waste Identifying, recommending, and implementing process or machinery upgrades to enhance shift efficiency, boost output, and hit corporate targets
