• Ability to work independently and make sound decisions without constant oversight

• Leadership style that balances accountability with respect and professionalism

• Clear, direct communicator who can set expectations and follow through consistently

• Availability to work 1st shift consistently, with flexibility for frequent overtime

What Success Looks Like in This Role
