Manufacturing Supervisor

Operations Supervisor (Warehouse & Production) Compensation $33.99 – $39.14 / hour + Overtime Eligible (Non-Exempt) Job Summary Tired of being micromanaged? Ready to actually run your own floor? Our client is a rapidly growing, leading national manufacturer and distributor of high-performance building materials. They are looking for an autonomous, impact-driven Operations Supervisor to take full ownership of their local back-office logistics, warehousing, and light production floor. Given the geographic isolation of this branch from mainland headquarters, this position requires a highly self-reliant leader with strong independent decision-making skills. This isn't a desk job, and it’s definitely not a place to just "maintain the status quo." We need a hands-on leader who looks at a floor and immediately sees how to use Lean/5S to make it faster, safer, and more accurate. What You’ll Do Day-to-Day Own the Floor: Lead and develop an on-site warehouse and production crew of 10–20 hourly employees. You’ll have the freedom to build your team culture and actively coach up performance. Drive Efficiency & Logistics: Supervise container freight receiving, inventory staging, and local fulfillment workflows. Use Lean and 5S methodologies to optimize the warehouse layout, reduce logistical waste, and streamline throughput. Master the Metrics: Take direct accountability for key inventory KPIs, specifically Inventory Record Accuracy, Order Picking Accuracy, and Labor Efficiency. Oversee Assets: Manage preventative maintenance and floor utilization for material processing machinery, specialized tools, and forklifts. Keep Data Clean: Run daily transactions through a modern, cloud-based ERP system using electronic barcoding and digital scanning workflows to eliminate manual tracking errors. Excludes front-office administrative duties (such as order entry and customer invoicing). What We’re Looking For Experience: 5+ years of operational, warehousing, logistics, or manufacturing experience, including a minimum of 2 years of direct people management experience on an industrial floor. Strong ERP & Scanning Discipline: Highly proficient with modern ERP systems (entering transactions, tracking inventory) and direct experience utilizing electronic barcoding/RF scanning devices. Experience with Infor CloudSuite Industrial (Syteline) or Sage ERP platforms is a plus. A "Hands‑On" Leadership Style: You lead from the front. You possess high mechanical aptitude and are fully willing to jump on a forklift, operate machinery, or help move materials alongside your team when the operation needs support. Active forklift certifications or safety credentials (OSHA‑10/30) are highly valued. A Track Record of Impact: You can easily point to a past warehouse or production line and explain how you left it more organized, safer, and more efficient than you inherited it. Physical Capability: Ability to stand/walk on a concrete floor for extended periods and safely lift up to 50 lbs when assisting the team. Education: High School Diploma or GED required; a Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain, Operations, or Business is preferred but equivalent field leadership experience is fully accepted. Why You Should Apply True Autonomy: Treat this facility like your own business. You will have immense freedom to implement processes and direct workflows without someone constantly looking over your shoulder. Fully Compensated for Every Hour: Shift parameters are stable, but unlike salaried roles that expect 50+ hours a week for zero extra pay, this position is strictly hourly and Overtime Eligible. Any hours worked past 40 are paid at time-and-a-half to properly reward your floor hours. Career Growth: Step into a high-visibility role reporting directly to a regional General Manager within a rapidly scaling national network.
