Job Description

2nd Shift Operations Manager – Food Manufacturing
We’re looking for a sharp, hands-on leader to take ownership of our second shift operations at a fast-paced, high-output packaging facility. With our previous manager promoted and expansion in full swing, we’re adding fresh leadership to keep our momentum going strong.

You’ll be the driving force behind a large team of production professionals, ensuring schedules stay on track, standards stay high, and communication across departments is seamless. If you thrive in an environment where no two days are the same and your impact is felt shift after shift, keep reading.

Summary
• Full second shift schedule: 3 PM – 11 PM
• Strong cross-functional support from quality, logistics, and leadership teams
• Streamlined plant with established safety and compliance procedures
• Preference for local candidates; relocation may be considered individually

Responsibilities
• Run second shift operations across multiple lines, ensuring production goals are met without compromising safety or quality
• Manage four shift supervisors and oversee 90–100 team members to keep flow, productivity, and morale on point
• Work closely with the first shift team during transition to set priorities and review any challenges
• Monitor shift KPIs—output, waste, labor hours—and implement adjustments as needed
• Coordinate with warehouse and QA teams to maintain product integrity and schedule adherence
• Lead performance discussions and daily huddles; build a team culture based on trust and accountability
• Use ERP systems and reporting tools to track labor efficiency, downtime, and materials usage
• Support audit readiness and ensure compliance with all applicable food safety and workplace standards

What You’ll Need to Succeed
• BS/BA degree preferred
• Minimum 5 years managing production teams—preferably in a fast-paced or food manufacturing setting
• Experience leading multi-line operations with large hourly teams
• Strong communication and organization skills, with a calm-under-pressure leadership style
• Working knowledge of ERP systems and Microsoft Excel
• Ability to coach others, make data-informed decisions, and keep shift operations smooth and responsive

You’ll Stand Out If You:
• Are looking to transition from a senior supervisor or lead into full operations management
• Excel at motivating teams during second shift hours and setting a high standard for performance
• Want to be part of a company that recognizes talent and offers long-term leadership paths
