Job description

Location Palm Coast, United States of America

At Alleima's Business Unit Medical, we turn advanced materials and engineering expertise into solutions that change lives. Partnering with the world's leading medical device innovators, we design, develop, and manufacture components and medical solutions that push the boundaries of what's possible in medical technology, from continuous glucose monitors to cochlear implants. Join our team in Palm Coast, FL, and help lead a high-performing production environment where safety, quality, and collaboration come together to support medical innovation. As Flow Manager, you will play a vital role in guiding daily manufacturing operations, developing frontline talent, and connecting cross-functional teams to deliver consistent, high-quality results.

About the role

As Flow Manager, you will oversee department-level production flow, quality compliance, and personnel development in an on-site manufacturing environment. You will lead operators and Flow Leads on the floor, champion a zero-tolerance safety culture, and help ensure strong operational execution across the department. Maintain safe working conditions, reinforce safety rules, confirm employee readiness for assigned work, and support inspections, emergency readiness, fire prevention, and hazard correction in partnership with EHS and the safety committee. Conduct root-cause analyses for accidents, near-misses, unsafe conditions, and unsafe work practices, document findings, verify corrective actions, and elevate resource gaps when needed. Manage, coach, and support operators and Flow Leads while driving clear daily and weekly communication around safety, quality, delivery, staffing, and escalation priorities. Maintain staffing plans and skills matrices, support cross-training and skill development, and lead performance reviews and employee relations with a fair and consistent approach. Execute production plans by monitoring floor-level KPIs such as throughput, scrap, and downtime, resolving bottlenecks, and optimizing workflow to meet production targets. Ensure adherence to product specifications and SOPs by auditing floor compliance, investigating quality deviations, and implementing permanent corrective actions. Act as the operational bridge across Production, Supply Chain, Quality, Engineering, and Maintenance to manage downtime planning, reduce disruption, and address capacity, material, and scheduling risks.

About you

You bring proven experience managing and coaching large frontline teams of 20 to 50 employees in a fast-paced manufacturing environment, along with at least three years of manufacturing experience. You have strong verbal and written communication skills and can deliver clear shift direction, navigate sensitive employee relations matters, and provide concise operational updates to senior plant leadership. You are highly agile in your thinking, able to analyze trends, resolve complex floor issues, and make calm, sound decisions when unexpected disruptions occur. You build strong relationships across functions and work effectively with Production, Maintenance, Quality, and Engineering to keep operations moving. You are also organized and comfortable with administrative responsibilities, including managing safety reports, skills matrices, and production-related systems such as ERP, MES, or Excel.
