Who We Are Looking For

We're seeking a hands-on leader who thrives in a fast-paced production environment and takes pride in keeping the team, equipment, and quality on track. You're someone who leads by example, communicates clearly, and stays calm and adaptable when the unexpected happens.

Along the way, you'll champion a safe work environment, train new team members, and collaborate across departments to keep safety, quality, and production information flowing throughout the facility.

What You Bring To The Team
