About the Role
A fifth-generation, family-owned food manufacturer with over 100 years in business is looking for an experienced Sanitation Supervisor to lead a 3rd shift sanitation team at a fully automated Chicago facility. This is a floor-present, hands-on leadership role for someone who sets the standard by being visible and engaged every night, not managing from behind a desk.

Family-owned through five generations, they have built a reputation for treating employees like people, investing in long-term growth, and continuing to push forward with new products and facility improvements. Local candidates only.
