Location: Cedar Valley / Northeast Iowa Area

 

Compensation: $75,000 – $85,000 Base + Comprehensive Benefits

 

Are you an operational frontrunner who thrives on the plant floor rather than behind a desk? A premier regional manufacturer is actively expanding its leadership bench. We are seeking dynamic, hands-on leaders to drive shift performance, mentor production crews, and champion workplace safety.

  • 2nd Shift: Afternoon / Evening Schedule

 

  • 3rd Shift: Overnight Schedule

 

Core Responsibilities


  • Floor Leadership: Lead daily shift execution, balance line staffing, and actively engage alongside the crew (approx. 50% hands-on involvement) to ensure output targets are achieved.

 

  • Team Development: Onboard, train, and mentor operators; cultivate cross-training, set clear performance metrics, and foster open communication.

 

  • Operational Excellence: Oversee process flow, pinpoint operational bottlenecks, monitor equipment reliability, and drive continuous efficiency improvements.

 

  • Safety & Quality Standards: Enforce rigorous OSHA standards, conduct proactive hazard audits, and serve as the frontline quality gatekeeper for all finished goods.

 



Requirements

  • High School Diploma or GED.

 

  • 3+ years of progressive supervisory or team-lead experience in an industrial manufacturing setting.

 

  • Proven track record in shift planning, root-cause troubleshooting, and workflow optimization.
