Job description
BD is one of the largest global medical technology companies in the world. Advancing the world of health™ is our Purpose, and it's no small feat. It takes the imagination and passion of all of us-from design and engineering to the manufacturing and marketing of our billions of MedTech products per year-to look at the impossible and find transformative solutions that turn dreams into possibilities.
Job Description
The Mold Maintenance Supervisor will report directly to the Manufacturing Unit Leader. This position will require a hands-on approach working with Mold Technicians with different skill sets. This role will work directly with the machine shop supervisor and the Molding parts coordinators and communicate what is needed for mold repair and spare parts. The direct reports for this position will be Mold Maintenance Technicians 1,2 and 3.
Responsibilities:
- Be the Communication Hub: Stay responsive and accessible during working hours, ensuring your team and stakeholders get timely replies when they need you most
- Keep Everyone in the Loop: Provide regular, transparent updates throughout every process-whether it's timeline adjustments, unexpected challenges, headcount changes, or when molds need to be pulled
- Master the Schedule: Own the preventive maintenance calendar for the entire week while staying agile enough to accommodate urgent repairs and last-minute changes
- Champion Quality Excellence: Ensure every mold that leaves your shop meets the highest standards-eliminating issues like increased cavitation and water leaks before they impact production
- Lead with Purpose: Conduct bi-weekly staff meetings with your direct reports to discuss concerns, review policies, share upcoming events, and create space for team members to contribute ideas for improvement. You'll include off-shift team members too, whether they call in or join on-site
- Drive Continuous Improvement: Take an active, hands-on role in continuous improvement initiatives within the Molding department, helping shape the future of operations
- Roll Up Your Sleeves: Jump onto the bench when headcount is short-you're not afraid to do the work yourself to keep production moving smoothly
- Maintain Documentation Standards: Review and update Standard Work Instructions in the Mold Shop, ensuring procedures stay current and effective
- Manage Disruptions Proactively: Provide weekly updates on any PM or repair schedule disruptions, such as down molds that impact the shop's workflow, keeping leadership informed and solutions-focused
Required Qualifications:
- High school diploma or equivalent.
- 3 years managing people.
- Experience in manufacturing/machine shop Mold maintenance, mold set-up, and troubleshooting Knowledge of tooling procedures and operation of shop equipment
Preferred Qualifications:
- Bachelors Degree
Work Environment:
- Personal Protective Equipment must be worn and may include a hair net, steel toe shoes, safety glasses, and/or ear plugs.
- This associate may be expected to stand for long periods of time during their shift.
- PPE Required - Safety shoes and safety glasses are always required, high vis vest and ear protection as needed.
- Ability to stand for extended periods of time.
- Ability to lift up to 50 pounds.
At BD, we prioritize on-site collaboration because we believe it fosters creativity, innovation, and effective problem-solving, which are essential in the fast-paced healthcare industry. For most roles, we require a minimum of 4 days of in-office presence per week to maintain our culture of excellence and ensure smooth operations, while also recognizing the importance of flexibility and work-life balance. Remote or field-based positions will have different workplace arrangements which will be indicated in the job posting.

In some locations, testing for COVID-19 may be available and/or required. Consistent with BD's Workplace Accommodations Policy, requests for accommodation will be considered pursuant to applicable law.
