Shape the flow of production at MacLean-Fogg

When the clock strikes 3 PM in Saegertown, a new rhythm begins on the floor. You take the handoff, scan the line, check the boards, and rally a skilled crew. As the Manufacturing Operations Cell Leader, you turn plans into product—keeping people safe, quality tight, and output on pace through the evening.

What your shift looks like

• Lead a production team operating machinery and assembling products; keep lines running safely and efficiently while maintaining product integrity.
• Distribute work, set priorities, and track progress to hit volume and quality objectives for your area.
• Coordinate with earlier and later shifts as well as adjacent departments to maintain a smooth, uninterrupted flow.
• Spot equipment concerns early; partner with maintenance and engineering on repairs and preventive actions to minimize downtime.
• Watch material levels and reorder points so your team never waits on parts or packaging.
• Align staffing and supplies with the production plan in collaboration with planning and materials teams.
• Support in-process checks and work closely with Quality to ensure standards are consistently met.
• Champion a safe, clean, and organized workplace by enforcing 5S and safe work practices.
• Complete shift summaries, inventories, safety verifications, and production records accurately and on schedule.
• Drive continuous improvement to remove waste, reduce bottlenecks, and boost throughput.
