Schedule:
2nd Shift ~ Monday-Friday 3:30 PM-12:30 AM
Productiv is seeking a hands-on, Bilingual Production Supervisor to lead kitting and hand-pack operations in our Grapevine, TX facility. This role focuses on supervising people on light - production lines assembling boxes and bags for major brands (e.g., beauty, personal care, consumer goods), not heavy manufacturing or forklift - driven warehouse work.
You will own shift performance for multiple kitting lines: planning labor, hitting piece - rate and one - piece - flow targets, ensuring quality and presentation standards for consumer - facing kits, and building a safe, positive, high - pace environment.
Requirements- Lead daily kitting and hand - pack production lines assembling boxes and bags for retail and e - commerce customers.
- Plan labor and assign associates to lines based on work orders, volumes, and due dates.
- Manage one - piece flow and piece - rate production, hitting hourly units-per-hour (UPH) and throughput goals while maintaining quality.
- Monitor line balance, identify bottlenecks, and make real - time adjustments to keep orders on schedule.
- Ensure presentation standards: correct items, counts, labeling, inserts, and overall appearance of kits for consumer brands.
- Maintain a clean, organized, and safe production area, enforcing safety and GMP/housekeeping expectations.
- Track and communicate key KPIs (e.g., UPH, labor productivity, quality/defect rates, rework, attendance) and lead daily huddles.
- Train, coach, and cross - train production associates and line leads on standard work and best practices.
- Partner with operations, inventory, and account management teams to ensure materials are staged and orders ship on time.
- Drive a culture of urgency, teamwork, and continuous improvement on the floor.
Must - Have Experience
- 2+ years in a production leadership role specifically in kitting, hand - pack, co - packing, or light assembly (e - commerce, 3PL, contract packaging, or fulfillment center).
- 1+ year supervising or leading teams on production lines (kitting cells, pack lines, or similar).
- Direct experience with high - volume, people - driven production (lines of associates packing, assembling, or re - working product), not heavy equipment or machine - based manufacturing.
- Bilingual: fluent in English and Spanish
Skills and Attributes
- Strong KPI mindset: comfortable using data (UPH, errors, labor hours, scrap/rework) to drive decisions and coach the team.
- Proven ability to lead from the floor: working side - by - side with associates, jumping in to demonstrate pace and quality standards.
- Effective communicator who can give clear instructions, feedback, and recognition in both English and Spanish.
- Organized, detail - oriented, and comfortable managing multiple orders/customers at once in a fast - moving environment.
Nice to Have
- Experience in a 3PL, fulfillment, or contract packaging environment with consumer brands (beauty, personal care, retail).
- Familiarity with one - piece flow, lean concepts, and standard work in a light - manufacturing or fulfillment setting.
- Basic computer skills for production reporting and warehouse/production systems.
