The ideal candidate will bring structure, motivation, and floor-level leadership to a team working across shifts.

• Troubleshoot mechanical issues on legacy equipment in a chemical manufacturing environment
• Foster a safety-first mindset and enforce plant policies and procedures
• Be a visible presence on the floor, including time with the night team
• Support cross-functional collaboration during site-wide transformation initiatives
• Champion preventive maintenance and resource planning through collaboration and team development

What You Bring

• 5+ years of maintenance leadership in a manufacturing or industrial setting
• Proven ability to lead teams, build trust, and coach frontline employees
• Strong mechanical aptitude—experience with older machinery preferred
• Confident communicator—clear, professional, and effective with both hourly teams and leadership
• Comfortable in a chemical plant setting and able to be fitted for a respirator
• Bonus if you bring:
• Electrical troubleshooting or AC/electrical experience
• Exposure to glove/sleeve manufacturing or similar processes
• Familiarity with Lean, Six Sigma, or other CI methodologies

Why Apply
