  • Promote safe handling and processing of molding materials, particularly PVC and CPVC.
  • Monitor molding processes, machine performance, product quality, scrap, and production output.
  • Support troubleshooting and timely response to machine/process interruptions.
  • Coordinate with Maintenance, Quality, Engineering, Planning, and other departments to resolve production issues.
  • Maintain appropriate staffing and cross-training to support changing production requirements.
  • Drive continuous improvement related to safety, quality, productivity, and operational efficiency.
  • Support resin inventory, material management, housekeeping, and other operational requirements occurring during 3rd shift.
  • Ensure accurate timekeeping and employee records and support performance management and employee relations.
  • Utilize ERP/MES and other computer systems to document and manage production activity.
  • Reinforce Hayward's safety expectations and proactively identify and address potential hazards.

Qualifications
Required/Highly Preferred:
  • Strong experience in injection molding and plastics manufacturing.
  • Knowledge of injection molding processes and the ability to recognize and respond to processing and machine-related issues.
  • Experience working with PVC and/or CPVC is strongly preferred and will be prioritized.
  • Understanding of plastics/resins and safe material-processing practices.
  • Ability and willingness to work in a hands-on supervisory capacity.
  • Strong computer skills and experience working within an ERP, MES, or similar manufacturing system.
  • Demonstrated commitment to manufacturing safety, quality, and production performance.

Preferred:
  • Previous manufacturing supervisory or team-lead experience.
  • Experience leading injection molding operators and/or molding technicians.
  • Lean manufacturing, continuous improvement, and root-cause-analysis experience.
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent combination of education and relevant manufacturing experience.
  • Bilingual English/Spanish communication skills are a plus.
  • Experience with AS400, Mattec, D365, or comparable manufacturing systems is beneficial but not required.
