- Provide direct shift floor leadership, mentoring and motivating a high-performing production crew, managing daily shift schedules, and optimizing labor allocation across active lines.
- Optimize raw material flow and resource allocation to minimize downtime, eliminate bottlenecks, and consistently achieve aggressive shift output targets.
- Enforce strict food safety protocols, championing a culture of absolute compliance with FDA, SQF, HACCP, and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) standards.
- Lead localized continuous improvement (Lean/5S) projects to enhance floor procedures, cut waste, and boost Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE).
- Facilitate seamless cross-shift communication and structured handoffs between first and second shift teams.
- Maintain a zero-incident safety culture, conducting risk assessments, addressing shop-floor hazards, and managing daily shift performance logs via ERP/software systems.

- Stable Work History: Progressive professional record demonstrating reliability, strong attendance, and multi-year tenures.
- Proximity to the facility, residing within a dependable 45-minute daily driving radius of the Jefferson, WI area.
