Job description

Georgia-Pacific is seeking a Reliability Supervisor to lead our maintenance team at our Kansas City, MO, Corrugated Packaging facility. This is a high-impact role for a hands‑on leader who thrives in a fast‑paced, technically complex manufacturing environment. How We Make Boxes | Georgia-Pacific

We’re looking for someone who is driven by reliability, safety, and continuous improvement and who enjoys developing people as much as solving technical problems. In this role, you will play a critical part in increasing equipment uptime, improving asset reliability, and supporting a culture where every employee has the knowledge and tools to contribute at a high level.

You’ll work with specialized high‑volume equipment unique to corrugated bulk packaging while advancing our Principle-Based Management™ culture and shaping the long‑term reliability strategy of the facility.

Our Team

Our Kansas City GP Corrugated facility is a modern, high‑capacity corrugated‑packaging plant where you’ll help produce single- and multi‑wall sheets, die‑cut shippers, and custom‑printed packaging using advanced converting and flexographic printing equipment. This is a safety‑first, sustainability‑minded environment—focused on recycled fiber and waste‑reduction initiatives that offers fast, hands‑on learning across production, maintenance, and process improvement.

What You Will Do

• Lead and develop a multi‑skilled maintenance team, ensuring safe work practices in a safe, continuous manufacturing environment
• Own the reliability and performance of plant assets by driving improvements in preventive, predictive, and condition‑based maintenance
• Partner closely with Operations to improve line efficiency, reduce downtime, and maximize equipment availability
• Coach, mentor, and build talent—advancing skills, ownership, accountability, and problem‑solving capability
• Promote a strong safety culture by proactively identifying hazards and implementing engineering and administrative controls
• Provide technical direction on troubleshooting, repairs, and quality of craft work to drive efficient, high‑quality outcomes
• Use CMMS and digital tools to manage work orders, track results, and drive data‑based decision‑making
• Support continuous improvement initiatives that reduce cost, improve reliability, and expand equipment life
• Work a flexible schedule and provide leadership support on nights, weekends, or holidays as needed

Who You Are (Basic Qualifications)

• Experience leading and supervising teams, including mentoring and training staff to develop skills, improve performance, and ensure accountability
• Experience working in an industrial, manufacturing, production, or military environment
• Working knowledge of CMMS or similar tools to plan, schedule, and manage maintenance activities
• Experience in preventive/predictive maintenance and hands‑on familiarity with industrial control systems (PLCs, drives, motors, instrumentation, or automation)

What Will Put You Ahead

• Leadership experience in corrugated, pulp/paper, or packaging industries
• Experience in maintenance planning, including developing preventive maintenance schedules, prioritizing work orders, and coordinating with operations and maintenance teams
• Experience leading skilled trades or maintenance teams with a focus on safety, reliability, and performance in heavy industrial or manufacturing settings (corrugated, paper, packaging, or similar)
• Postsecondary education in technical field
