Position Summary:

Associates in the Shift Leader position are responsible for leading their production shift in manufacturing quality products in strict conformity to the work instructions. The work will support PPC’s ability to produce quality flexible packaging materials on time while assuring that Associates comply with all applicable safety and quality control procedures. Associates in this position are entrusted with the valuable components of production including facilities, raw materials, supplies, machines & equipment, tools, and the Associate’s time and talents. In the event of absence, these job responsibilities will be covered by employees in the “Department Leader” position or another employee in the “Shift Leader” position.

All responsibilities, however, have not been included, nor could they be.

Likewise, this description will be revised when required to meet current business needs.

  • Ensure a safe manufacturing facility for all employees.
  • Maintains a secure workplace, responsible for the physical operation of the plant. Assumes the role of “Acting Plant Manager” during the off-shifts and any time the Plant Manager is not on the premises.
  • Shift Leaders arrive prior to their scheduled shift to review the production schedule, review staffing issues, and touch base with the prior Shift Leader for continuity (Shift-to-Shift “Tie-In”) and preparation for the communication “huddles.”

Any discrepancies or points of confusion must be addressed, clarified, and formally revised, if necessary, before proceeding with the job.
  • Drives strict compliance with all Quality Control procedures to first make sure we are making product properly (“Approved Set-up Sample”), then to both assure consistency and limit our quality exposure throughout the run by continuously monitoring the process including auditing roll-to-roll checks. Makes sure that Operators “flag” and document all deviations from the approved quality sample to alert the downstream operations of quality problems.
  • Trains, guides, and assists Associates in the successful execution of their roles. Coordinates training of new Associates by assigning a qualified trainer and monitoring the timely completion and documentation of the training program.
