We're partnering with a well-established precision manufacturer that has built its reputation on producing high-quality components for some of the most demanding industries. Their success has been driven by investing in advanced manufacturing technology, developing exceptional talent, and fostering a culture built around teamwork, accountability, and continuous improvement.

Due to continued growth, they are seeking a 2nd Shift Production Supervisor to lead manufacturing operations during one of the facility's most critical shifts. This is an opportunity for a hands‑on leader who enjoys being on the production floor, coaching employees, solving problems in real time, and driving operational excellence.

What You'll Be Doing:

  • Lead, coach, and develop production employees while fostering a culture centered on safety, accountability, and teamwork.
  • Oversee daily production activities to ensure quality, productivity, and on‑time delivery objectives are consistently achieved.
  • Monitor production metrics and proactively identify opportunities to improve efficiency, throughput, and overall operational performance.
  • Partner with engineering, quality, maintenance, planning, and other cross‑functional teams to quickly resolve production challenges.
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives focused on reducing waste, improving workflow, and increasing productivity.
  • Ensure compliance with company safety standards, quality requirements, and manufacturing procedures.
  • Conduct shift meetings, communicate production priorities, and maintain clear communication between shifts.
  • Support employee development through coaching, training, performance management, and recognition of high performers.
  • Assist with scheduling, staffing, labor allocation, and production planning to meet customer demands.
  • Lead by example on the production floor while maintaining a visible, approachable leadership style.

What We're Looking For:

  • Previous leadership experience within a manufacturing or production environment.
  • Experience supervising production employees in a fast‑paced manufacturing facility.
  • Strong understanding of lean manufacturing, continuous improvement, and operational best practices.
  • Proven ability to motivate teams, build accountability, and develop employees.
  • Comfortable making decisions in a dynamic manufacturing environment while balancing quality, safety, and production goals.
