PrideStaff has partnered with a rapidly growing, premier specialty custom display manufacturer in West Palm Beach to find a high-caliber Production Lead / Working Operations Supervisor .

Our client designs and manufactures high-end, custom display and preservation solutions trusted by clients worldwide. Because their business is scaling quickly, they need a hands-on leader who commands the production floor by example. This is not a desk job. We are looking for a true working supervisor who will work alongside the team, streamline workflows, coach employees, and ensure every finished product meets impeccable quality standards.

What You'll Do (Your Day-to-Day):

• Drive Daily Production: Oversee and execute daily operations across fabrication, assembly, quality control, photography support, and shipping to ensure production goals are met.
  
• Lead from the Floor: Work directly alongside the team to balance labor during volume shifts, master key assembly processes, and remove operational bottlenecks.
  
• Coach & Develop: Train associates on precise technical processes, provide real-time feedback, and build a culture of true accountability and pride in the final product.
  
• Protect Quality Standards: Enforce rigorous quality checks throughout the manufacturing process to minimize errors, eliminate rework, and protect raw materials.
  
• Report & Standardize: Partner closely with the Director of Operations to track daily KPIs, report on progress, and implement continuous improvement initiatives.

What You Need to Succeed:

• Proven Leadership: Experience managing hourly employees in a fast-paced manufacturing, custom fabrication, assembly, or high-quality fulfillment environment.
  
• A "Working Supervisor" Mentality: A desire to be on your feet, solving problems in real-time, and setting the pace for the team.
  
• Metrics-Driven Focus: Experience utilizing daily production targets, tracking systems, and KPIs to drive team performance.
  
• Process Improvement Skills: The ability to identify workflow issues and implement lean strategies to help a growing operation scale.

Ideal Background (Experience in any of the following is a strong plus):

• Custom fabrication or precision manufacturing
  
• Medical device assembly or aerospace production
  
• Electronics manufacturing
  
• Lean Manufacturing / Six Sigma environments
  
• High-end, detail-oriented product fulfillment

The Ideal Candidate:

• Takes immense pride in precision and doing things right the first time.
  
• Builds a culture of total ownership rather than just "getting through the shift."
  
• Creates accountability and motivates others without managing through fear.
  
• Focuses on solving problems rather than just explaining why they happened.
