At Riverside Foods, a Lakeside Foods company, we're committed to growing our company – and our people. When you join the Lakeside team, you’ll become part of our family. Since 1887 we’ve produced a diverse line of canned and frozen foods. We sell our products through major retailers, food service distributors and national restaurant chains. We’re driven to find new, innovative ways to serve our customers and our community. And there’s a seat at the table for you.

Lead the Floor. Drive Results. Build a Winning Team.

This is a hands‑on leadership role for someone who likes to be in the action, not behind a desk. As a Production Supervisor, you’ll be the person who keeps the operation running smoothly—setting the tone, solving problems in real time, and leading a team that depends on you to keep production moving safely and efficiently.

If you’re the kind of leader who knows the floor, backs up your people, and takes pride in hitting goals the right way, you’ll thrive here.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Lead and supervise daily production operations, including machine setup and operation
• Train and coach employees on equipment use, safety, and performance expectations
• Keep production on track while maintaining quality, safety, and efficiency standards
• Communicate clearly and consistently with team members and leadership
• Address employee issues head‑on by investigating concerns and driving solutions
• Support the Production Manager and jump in wherever leadership is needed

You’ll be the difference between a shift that struggles—and one that wins.

Why This Role Is Worth Your Time

• Competitive wages
• Four 10-hour shifts (Monday–Thursday) with mandatory OT on some Fridays
• Low-cost medical insurance plus dental and vision
• Paid holidays & paid vacation
• 401(k) with company match
• Safety shoe reimbursement
• A stable operation with long-term growth and opportunities to advance
• A company that values leadership, accountability, and results—not micromanagement

What It Takes to Lead Here

• Previous food manufacturing experience is a plus
• Proven leadership or supervisory experience
• Strong problem-solving and decision-making skills
• A safety-first mindset with knowledge of OSHA and occupational safety requirements
• Ability to pass a pre-employment drug screen
• A drive to lead from the front and help build a strong, reliable team

The Bottom Line

This is a role for leaders who want ownership, influence, and respect—not just a title. If you’re ready to lead people, solve problems, and help grow a production operation that’s going places, this is your opportunity.

Riverside Foods, a Lakeside Foods company, welcomes people of all backgrounds and the varied ideas they bring to the workplace.
