Right now, we’re in need of someone like you for our “Production Lead” role, in which you’d monitor production to make sure that goals are met safely and effectively. As a Production Lead, you’ll be responsible for leading 5-10 production employees and working to maintain profitability and quality, food safety, and company standards. You’ll train employees, assign and direct work, conduct performance reviews, address complaints, and work to solve problems. You play an essential role in making sure operations run smoothly.
You’ll also be responsible for hammering out employee and production schedules, developing and implementing safety awareness programs, and making sure you keep employees safe by investigating and correcting any safety-related problems. You’ll make sure your team adheres to best practices and consistent policies, and you’ll visually inspect product to make sure it meets food safety and company requirements.
Another reason why you’re so important—you’re responsible for helping build employee morale and motivation and creating an environment that inspires good, hard work.

Without you, we have no mojo. Because ours is a high-energy, high-responsibility production environment, we need your skills to keep everything flowing smoothly and safely. You do this using your forklift operating abilities to supply material to production lines, store finished goods, stage orders, and load/unload trucks.
We call you our “Forklift Operator,” yet your responsibilities go far beyond driving around all day. We demand an organized warehouse, maintained inventories, stock rotation, overall cleanliness, and strong team involvement. Most vital of all, you perform your duties in the safest, most efficient way possible.
Nothing is more important than safety. Identifying hazards for people and traffic, observing various environments, understanding forklift performance … it’s all critical to a successful, safe operation. You’ll earn your OSHA license with us, and then you’ll be relied upon by the team for everything from continuously supplying product to moving finished goods into trucks.

You possess unique skills that we need. Not many people can focus on details while also seeing the big picture. And, some people can’t act quickly to solve problems. But, YOU … you’re an independent thinker who can quarterback a team as well as you can operate a machine (both computer-controlled and mechanically based). You love how machines work, know at what level they should perform, and understand how to fix them.
Your official title is “Machine Operator” as you lead a line of 5+ team members, all working toward the same goal: producing high-quality, safe food products. After you’re properly trained, you call the shots to help the company reach impressive goals. You may also be crossed-trained on other machines for future advancement.
Safety is critical for us. That means your previous machine operator experience is used daily (even minute-by-minute) to follow vital safety procedures, including lock-out tag-out, electrical, etc. We’re looking for all shifts so, together, we’ll find the right fit for you.

Your performance may provide opportunities for cross-training in other positions and upward movement within the company.
