Shipping Supervisor/ 2nd Shift

An established manufacturing company is seeking a confident, experienced Shipping Supervisor to oversee its second-shift shipping operations.

This position requires a strong, hands-on leader who can independently manage employees, maintain accountability, resolve operational challenges, and ensure work continues efficiently throughout the evening.

With less direct management oversight during later hours, the ideal candidate must be comfortable making decisions, motivating employees, and taking ownership of department performance.

The company prioritizes leadership ability, sound judgment, and management potential over previous shipping experience. This is an excellent opportunity for a motivated supervisor looking to grow into a higher-level management role.

• Ensure established workplace procedures and safety standards are followed.
• Support employee training, development, and team performance.
• Maintain smooth operations and consistent workflow throughout the evening.
• Demonstrate the leadership skills and initiative needed for future advancement into management.

• Strong supervisory or team leadership experience required.
• Proven ability to lead employees independently and maintain accountability.
• Excellent communication, interpersonal, and people-management skills.
• Confidence in making decisions and resolving workplace challenges.
• Ability to manage operations effectively with limited management oversight.
• Strong organizational, problem-solving, and time-management abilities.
• Hands-on leadership style with a focus on productivity and results.
• Ability to motivate employees and maintain a positive, disciplined work environment.
• Dependable, proactive, and capable of taking ownership of department operations.
