  • Lead and develop the team. You'll guide managers and supervisors, ensuring they have the tools, direction, and support they need to succeed.
  • Own capital projects and equipment reliability. You'll manage projects, preventive maintenance programs, and key performance metrics to keep operations running smoothly.
