  3. Coordinate the flow of work across stations to meet tight deadlines
  4. Schedule jobs based on inventory needs and outgoing shipments
  5. Help plan and execute daily raw material cutting lists
  6. Monitor employee productivity and provide coaching when needed
  7. Perform regular quality checks to ensure pallet standards are met
  8. Maintain a clean, safe, and organized work environment
  9. Track production data and support reporting to management
  10. Communicate with the day shift to ensure a smooth transition

What You Bring to the Table:

  1. 2+ years forklift experience (licence required)
  2. 2+ years in a manufacturing or production environment
  3. Strong leadership and communication skills
  4. Able to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced setting
  5. Comfortable lifting up to 60 lbs and working in a noisy environment
  6. Quick-thinking and confident in making on-the-spot decisions
  7. Flexible and open to schedule changes or last-minute priorities

Bonus if you have:

  1. Experience with running manufacturing equipment and pneumatic tools or saws
  2. Familiarity with Lean manufacturing principles to improve efficiency and reduce waste in the scheduling process

Why join us:

  1. $24–$27/hour (based on experience)
  2. Paid overtime and Benefits: Health, dental, vision, life insurance
  3. Free on-site parking
  4. Tools and safety gear provided
