Job description

This Isn't Your Average Supervisor Job. This is a leadership role for an innovator. We’re not looking for someone to just watch the clock. We’re looking for a highly motivated, goal-oriented leader who wants to actively build, mentor, and drive a team to success. At this local company, you're not a number; you're a key leader in Ontario's largest independent plant.

For over 30 years, we've blended the stability of a market leader with the agility of an ever‑growing and ever‑changing company. We don’t just follow scripts—we empower our leaders to help write them by implementing real, continuous improvement. If you’re ready to own your shift and make a measurable impact, we want to hear from you.

Advantages

The Details & The Perks:

• Stability & Growth: Join a company that's been a Barrie landmark for over 30 years but is still innovating and growing.
• Impact: See your ideas in action. Your improvements will have a direct and visible impact on our success.
• Competitive Compensation: We offer a salary of $65,000–$70,000 per year plus a comprehensive benefits package.
• Your Schedule: This is a full‑time, Monday to Friday position with a weekly rotating schedule: Week 1: Days (7:00 AM – 3:00 PM), Week 2: Afternoons (3:00 PM – 11:00 PM).

Responsibilities

• Mission: As a Production Supervisor, you are the engine of your shift. You’ll provide the effective, hands‑on leadership our production team needs to meet and exceed our goals.
• LEAD & INSPIRE: Champion a high‑performance culture. You will be on the floor, coaching, mentoring, and developing your team, turning potential into high‑level performance.
• DRIVE PRODUCTION: You'll own the shift schedule, coordinating all activities to meet production targets without ever compromising on our two biggest priorities: safety and quality.
• CHAMPION SAFETY & QUALITY: Be the unwavering voice of safety on your shift. You will ensure all protocols are followed without exception and that every product that leaves your line meets our premium standards.

Qualifications

• A PROVEN LEADER: You have 3-5+ years of experience in a supervisory role, ideally in a fast‑paced manufacturing or industrial environment.
• Minimum grade 12 and related post‑secondary education.
• 2-4 years’ experience in a unionized, manufacturing environment.
• 2-4 years’ experience managing a minimum of 20-25 people, including recruitment, employee engagement and performance management.
• A PEOPLE-FIRST MENTOR: You're a natural‑born coach and an outstanding communicator who knows how to motivate a diverse team.
• AN INNOVATOR'S MINDSET: You aren't satisfied with 'that's how we've always done it.' You are goal‑oriented and constantly looking for a better way (experience with Lean, 5S, or CI is a huge asset).
