About the Role

The Manufacturing Operator position plays a critical role as the final stage in the manufacturing process for stickers and labels finished on a roll prior to the packaging and shipping of customer orders. In addition to operating finishing equipment, you may also be required to run other manufacturing machinery and equipment (e.g., shrink wrap machine and packaging/shipping station) to support overall production needs. Cross-training on all production machines and equipment is a core responsibility of this role. All operators are expected to learn and demonstrate proficiency on multiple machines beyond the one they were initially hired for or currently assigned to. This approach ensures operational flexibility, strengthens teamwork, and supports consistent and efficient production flow. You take pride in speed, accuracy, and quality, while embracing adaptability and collaboration. Your commitment to supporting your team and being “All In” helps ensure that customer orders are completed on time and to the highest standards.
