Railcar Cleaning Operations Supervisor

Pro-Vac
Chicago, IL Full Time
POSTED ON 4/9/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 7/5/2026
We Are Building Something That Matters
At Pro-Vac, we are building a company where safety isn’t a slogan—it’s how we operate. Where teams take pride in doing hard work the right way. Where we show up, solve real problems, and keep critical infrastructure running across the country.
This is not a desk job. This is where leadership meets the field.

Join the Mission
You will work alongside a team of operators, leaders, and problem-solvers who take ownership of their work and hold each other to a high standard.
Your mission is simple: lead rail operations that are safe, efficient, and profitable—while building a team that people are proud to be part of.

How We Work
We take ownership—no excuses, no shortcuts.
We solve problems fast and move forward.
We protect our people and our clients—every job, every time.

Are You Ready for This Challenge?
This role isn’t for someone who wants to maintain the status quo.
You’ll be stepping into a growing rail division where expectations are high, conditions change daily, and your leadership directly impacts safety, performance, and revenue.

About the Role
Rail Operations Supervisor
You will lead rail field operations across job sites, ensuring every project is executed safely, efficiently, and to the highest standard. You will manage crews, own client relationships, and drive performance in both operations and profitability.
This role is critical to expanding Pro-Vac’s rail division and delivering consistent, high-quality service to our customers. 

You’ll Love This Role If You Enjoy:
  • Leading crews in the field and holding people accountable to high standards
  • Owning job execution from start to finish
  • Solving real-time problems in fast-moving environments
  • Building strong relationships with clients and earning repeat business
  • Driving operational performance and improving efficiency
  • Being hands-on when needed—stepping in to support your team 

You’re a High Performer If You:
  • Lead from the front and earn respect through action
  • Hold yourself and others accountable for safety and results
  • Stay calm under pressure and make smart decisions quickly
  • Communicate clearly with crews, clients, and leadership
  • Take ownership of outcomes—not just tasks
  • Thrive in environments where every day looks different

Why This Role Is Worth It
  • Compensation: $100,000 – $120,000 base performance-based incentives
  • Impact: Direct influence on safety, team performance, and business growth
  • Growth: Opportunity to help scale and shape a growing rail division
  • Team: Work with driven, no-nonsense professionals who take pride in their work
  • Benefits: Medical, Vision, Life, 401(k) with match, PTO, and more 

Physical Requirements
This role requires the ability to stand, walk, lift (up to 50 lbs), bend, climb, and work in outdoor rail and industrial environments. You must be comfortable working around heavy equipment and in varying weather conditions.

Work Environment
This is a field-based leadership role. You will work primarily in rail yards and industrial job sites with frequent travel and occasional overnight stays. Conditions may include heat, cold, noise, and physically demanding environments. 

Equal Opportunity Employer
Pro-Vac provides equal employment opportunity to all individuals regardless of race, color, religion, gender, age, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, veteran status, or any other protected
characteristic. Hiring decisions are based on qualifications, merit, and business needs.
