What are the responsibilities and job description for the Fulfillment Operations Supervisor, Kitting - Day Shift position at Babylist?
What The Role Is
Babylist is looking for a Kitting Operations Supervisor for our fulfillment center in Commercial Point, Ohio. This role owns the kitting line day-to-day — staffing it, running it, and making sure product assembly stays accurate, fast, and safe. You'll lead a team of warehouse associates dedicated to kitting and value-added services, and you'll be the person who knows that line better than anyone else in the building. This is a hands-on floor role, not a desk job.
Core hours for this role are Monday - Thursday, 7:30 AM–5:30 PM. As with any supervisor role, some buffer before and after for handoff is expected — this is standard, not overtime.
Who You Are
- Kitting Expert: You've directly run or supervised a kitting or assembly line — you know how to sequence stations, balance workloads, and keep product moving without sacrificing accuracy.
- Process Builder: Able to write and implement SOPs for assembly workflows, and to spot where a process is bottlenecking before it becomes a bigger problem.
- Experienced Leader: 5 years managing people, with 3 years specifically in warehouse, fulfillment, or manufacturing assembly environments.
- Data-Driven Problem Solver: Comfortable pulling and reading production data to diagnose throughput or quality issues — you don't guess, you check the numbers.
- Tech-Savvy Professional: Experienced working in WMS or ERP systems to track kitting inventory, output, and staffing needs.
- Employee Relations Aware: You've documented performance or conduct issues and partnered with HR when something needed to go further than a coaching conversation.
- Safety-Focused: You treat safety as non-negotiable on a fast-moving assembly line, not an afterthought.
How You’ll Make an Impact
- Run the kitting line day-to-day — staffing, sequencing, and quality checks across every shift you own.
- Build and refine kitting SOPs so the line stays consistent even as volume and product mix change.
- Monitor kitting output and accuracy metrics, and fix root causes when either one slips.
- Train and coach a team of associates specifically on assembly and kitting workflows.
- Flag and document employee relations issues on your line, escalating to HR when needed.
- Partner with broader fulfillment leadership to keep kitting aligned with overall FC throughput goals.
- Provide backup leadership coverage in other operational areas on an as-needed basis (e.g., covering for another supervisor's absence) infrequent, but part of being a flexible floor leader
Physical Requirements
- Stand and walk for extended periods (up to 10–12 hours per shift) with scheduled breaks
- Walk the floor extensively, averaging 10,000 steps per day
- Lift and move items up to 20 lbs regularly throughout the shift
- Frequent pushing, pulling, bending, twisting, and repetitive motion
