Production Team Leader

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

• A 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

• We promote from within and support your learning with mentoring, training, and access to global opportunities.
• 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.
• We strive to create an inclusive work environment where people of all backgrounds are respected, and valued for who they are.
• 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.
