By fostering a high-performing team, you will contribute to the plant's overall reliability and output, supporting Flora Food Group's mission to make better food every day.

    Care

    This role reports to the Plant Manager and leads a team of hourly union employees on the night shift. You will work closely with cross-functional teams including Maintenance, Quality, Warehouse, and Planning to ensure smooth operations. Your leadership will promote a positive, inclusive culture that values safety, respect, and long-term sustainability. You will uphold the Collective Bargaining Agreement while maintaining strong labor relations and accountability.
