Job description

Are you the kind of person who hears a strange noise and has to figure it out? Do you love leading teams, solving problems, and keeping things running like a well-oiled machine? If so, we’ve got the perfect role for you.

What You’ll Do

As our Maintenance Supervisor, you’ll be the engine behind our operation—leading a skilled team and making sure everything runs safely, smoothly, and efficiently every day.

Your impact will include:

• Championing safety & food safety (GMPs, Lockout/Tagout, SQF, and more)
• Driving results across quality, productivity, and cost goals
• Leading and improving our preventative maintenance program
• Coaching, training, and developing a high-performing maintenance team
• Assigning daily tasks and making sure your team has what they need to succeed
• Troubleshooting complex equipment and process issues like a pro
• Keeping inventory stocked so critical parts are always ready
• Collaborating with leadership and sharing daily updates on performance
• Bringing fresh ideas to improve equipment, processes, and efficiency

What You Bring

We’re looking for a hands-on leader who thrives in a fast-paced manufacturing environment.

You’ll stand out if you have:

• 3+ years of maintenance experience in manufacturing (food & beverage = big plus!)
• Strong technical knowledge (mechanical, electrical, PLCs, ammonia refrigeration, boilers, etc.)
• Experience with preventive maintenance systems, TPM, and work orders
• Leadership skills that inspire teams and drive accountability
• A knack for problem-solving and thinking on your feet
• Solid communication and organizational skills
• Comfort using tools like MS Excel, Word, and Outlook

(Bonus points for technical or vocational education—but it’s not required!)

Why You’ll Love It Here

• You’ll lead, not just manage
• You’ll make a real impact every single day
• You’ll work with a team that values safety, respect, and collaboration
• You’ll have opportunities to grow your skills and career

If you're ready to take charge, build a strong team, and keep operations running at their best—we want to hear from you.
