Packaging Supervisor - Manufacturing

Commutable Area | Full-Time

A stable, well-established manufacturing company is seeking a Packaging Supervisor to lead day‑to‑day packaging operations at its primary facility. This is a hands‑on leadership role on the production floor, ideal for someone with manufacturing experience who enjoys leading people, running equipment, and keeping operations moving efficiently.

This is not a desk job and not a temporary role. The company is looking for someone they can rely on long term.

What You'll Do
  • Supervise and support a team of 5-10 employees on the packaging floor
  • Oversee daily packaging operations to ensure safety, quality, and efficiency
  • Operate and monitor packaging equipment including scales, baggers, sealers, palletizers, and conveyors
  • Ensure accurate product weights, labeling, and coding
  • Follow daily production and packaging schedules
  • Verify metal detection and HACCP procedures
  • Enforce safety standards and proper equipment operation
  • Partner with production leadership to keep workflow running smoothly
What They’re Looking For
  • Manufacturing experience (packaging, production, or similar environments)
  • Prior lead, trainer, or supervisory experience preferred
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to lead by example
  • Comfortable working in a fast‑paced plant environment
  • Forklift experience a plus (or willingness to be trained)
Why This Role
  • Full‑time, stable manufacturing opportunity
  • Starting pay around $20/hour with a raise at 90 days
  • Hands‑on leadership role with real responsibility
  • Clear expectations and supportive management
  • Growth potential within production and operations
Work Environment
  • Manufacturing setting (indoor/outdoor exposure)
  • Standing and walking throughout the shift
  • Concrete floors

If you have manufacturing experience and are anywhere nearby, this is a strong opportunity to step into or continue growing in a supervisory role.
