Production Control Expeditor

Production Control Expeditor

A well-established industrial manufacturer is adding two Production Control Expeditors to its first-shift operations team. This is the person who keeps finished product moving off the line - tracking completed parts and skids, scanning work orders, and keeping production control informed the moment a part needs to be rerun or an overrun shows up. It is a steady, hands-on role in a fast-moving plant where accurate tracking directly drives on-time shipping. For someone who is organized, comfortable on a computer, and wants a foot in the door with a stable, growing manufacturer, this is a clear path onto a busy operations floor.

Anticipated $20-$24/hr, based on experience
