Job Description

The Impact You'll Make

As a Production Team Leader, you'll play a key role in helping the manufacturing team achieve its goals for Safety, Quality, Delivery, and Cost. You'll be a hands-on leader who supports daily operations, develops team members, and drives continuous improvement across the production floor.


This is an opportunity to make a visible impact by coaching employees, solving operational challenges, and helping create a culture of accountability, teamwork, and excellence. You'll partner closely with supervisors and leaders while serving as a trusted resource for your team.


Success in this role means building a high-performing work environment where people, processes, and performance continually improve.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Lead and support a production team by assigning work, balancing priorities, and helping achieve key performance indicators (KPIs) related to safety, quality, delivery, and productivity.
  • Coach, train, and develop employees through hands-on guidance, feedback, cross-training, and performance monitoring to strengthen team capability and engagement.
  • Facilitate root cause problem solving (RCPS) and continuous improvement initiatives using lean manufacturing tools, 5S, and standardized processes to eliminate obstacles and improve results.
  • Monitor adherence to quality standards, safety requirements, and operational procedures while addressing production, equipment, and quality-related issues as they arise.
  • Serve as an extension of the Supervisor or Shift Leader by providing day-to-day leadership, supporting communication across teams, and acting as the designated point of contact when leadership is unavailable.

What We're Looking For

  • High school diploma or GED required.
  • At least 2 years of manufacturing experience, ideally within a production environment similar to the area being led.
  • Ability to lead, motivate, and develop team members through effective coaching, training, and performance feedback.
  • Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to identify root causes and drive corrective actions in a manufacturing setting.
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills and the ability to work effectively with employees, supervisors, and cross-functional teams.

What You'll Get from Us

  1. We promote from within and support your learning with mentoring, training, and access to global opportunities.
  2. You’ll have flexibility, autonomy, and support to do your best work while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Your well-being matters to us.
  3. We strive to create an inclusive work environment where people of all backgrounds are respected, and valued for who they are.
  4. You’ll receive benefits, annual bonus, paid vacation, pension plans, personal insurance, and more. These vary by country and contract, but they’re worth asking about—we think they’re pretty great.
