• Serve as the communication hub: remain responsive and accessible during working hours to provide timely replies to team and stakeholders.

• Champion quality excellence: ensure every mold that leaves the shop meets the highest standards, eliminating issues such as increased cavitation and water leaks before they affect production.
• Lead with purpose: conduct bi‑weekly staff meetings with direct reports to discuss concerns, review policies, share upcoming events, and provide space for team members to contribute improvement ideas, including off‑shift participants.
• Drive continuous improvement: take an active, hands‑on role in continuous improvement initiatives within the molding department and help shape future operations.
• Roll up your sleeves: step onto the bench when headcount is short and perform necessary work to keep production moving smoothly.
• Maintain documentation standards: review and update standard work instructions in the mold shop to keep procedures current and effective.
• Manage disruptions proactively: provide weekly updates on any preventive maintenance or repair schedule disruptions—such as down molds impacting shop workflow—keeping leadership informed and focused on solutions.
