Production Supervisor

American Bath Group is a leading North American manufacturer of bath and shower products, with a broad manufacturing footprint and a portfolio of established brands serving residential and commercial markets.

The Salem facility is an important manufacturing operation supporting customer demand across the organization. The site continues to strengthen its operating structure, production consistency, and frontline leadership capability as the business evolves.

American Bath Group is seeking a Production Supervisor to strengthen daily manufacturing execution at its Salem facility.

This role will provide hands‑on leadership for an assigned production team. The supervisor will establish clear expectations, maintain a visible presence on the floor, address operating issues as they occur, and ensure production priorities move through completion.

The position is designed for a manufacturing leader who is comfortable taking direct ownership of people, output, quality, attendance, and daily execution.

Success in the first year will mean independently leading an assigned production area and establishing a dependable operating rhythm across staffing, production, quality, communication, and employee accountability.

The successful supervisor will help the facility maintain production expectations, improve schedule reliability, reduce avoidable disruption, and strengthen follow‑through. Plant leadership should be able to rely on this person to accept direction, clarify expectations, complete work on time, and raise barriers before they become missed commitments.

The role should also reduce the need for senior leaders to intervene in routine frontline matters by creating stronger ownership at the supervisor level.

Provide high‑effort, floor‑based supervision by setting clear daily expectations, following through on assigned priorities, enforcing workforce accountability, and stabilizing shift execution without requiring constant leadership intervention.

The supervisor will translate production priorities into clear employee direction, monitor performance throughout the shift, and intervene when output, attendance, quality, safety, or behavior falls below expectation.

This person will be responsible for closing the loop on assigned work. That includes confirming expectations, establishing deadlines, communicating progress, resolving issues within the role, and escalating early when additional support is required.

• Maintain performance against established hourly and shift production expectations.
• Establish consistent shift‑start communication and production visibility.
• Improve schedule adherence within the assigned area.
• Reduce avoidable defects, rework, downtime, and overtime dependency.
• Maintain current staffing, attendance, and employee‑performance follow‑up.
• Address employee performance and behavioral concerns promptly and consistently.
• Complete leadership‑assigned work by agreed deadlines.
• Escalate barriers early with clear facts and recommended next steps.
• Improve coordination with maintenance, quality, tooling, supply chain, and other plant functions.
• Reduce repeated management follow‑up on routine supervisory responsibilities.

Specific production measures will be aligned to the area assigned and the operating expectations established by plant leadership.

The Salem operation is continuing to strengthen execution while managing production demands, workforce complexity, operating changes, and evolving leadership expectations.

The supervisor must remain effective when every process is not fully defined. Some issues will require independent action, while others will require timely coordination with plant leadership and support functions.

The workforce includes employees with different levels of tenure and experience. The role requires a leader who can establish credibility while still addressing attendance, behavior, quality, safety, and production concerns directly.

This is also a role with meaningful schedule demands. The facility operates on day shift, and periods of elevated production demand may require extended hours or additional…
