ABOUT KORPACK

Korpack is a growing, privately held packaging solutions company in the western Chicago suburbs, providing contract packaging, packaging materials, and automation to leading consumer brands. We run food-grade (SQF) production across two facilities and are investing heavily in people, systems, and a new 350,000 sq ft expansion. Two things define how we work: efficiency — lines that run to standard, every shift — and accuracy — work orders, inventory, and shipments that are right the first time in our ERP (Acumatica).

POSITION SUMMARY

Line Leads own one line and make it perform. Your job is the efficiency and quality of your line against the work order: right product, right rate, right the first time. You lead by doing — this is a working leadership role on the floor, deliberately free of system/ERP administration so your full attention is on the line and the people running it.

KEY ACCOUNTABILITIES

Line efficiency vs. run rates — your line hits its numbers, and you knowwhy whenitdoesn't. Product quality and work-order conformity — output matches the WO instructions, every time. Line readiness — materials staged, changeoversexecuted,operators positioned before the line needs them. Immediate escalation — deviations, shortages, and quality issues go up the moment you see them. (No ERP responsibility — that belongs to ProductionControl.)

DAY-TO-DAY RESPONSIBILITIES

Set up and run your line to the daily plan; direct operators andtempassociates on the line Verify work order instructions, components, and labeling before and during runs Track hourly output vs. run-rate standard; adjust and escalate to keep pace Perform and enforce quality checks; stop the line for conformity issues Coach new operatorson linestandards and safe operation

WHAT YOU BRING

1-2+ years in production/packaging with informal or formal lead experience A quality eye — you notice when something is off before it becomes a problem Clear, calm communication with a crew of mixed experience levels Bilingual English/Spanish a plus
