Productiv is seeking a hands-on, Bilingual Production Supervisor to lead kitting and hand-pack operations in our Grapevine, TX facility. This role focuses on supervising people on light-production lines assembling boxes and bags for major brands (e.g., beauty, personal care, consumer goods), not heavy manufacturing or forklift-driven warehouse work.
You will own shift performance for multiple kitting lines: planning labor, hitting piece-rate and one-piece-flow targets, ensuring quality and presentation standards for consumer-facing kits, and building a safe, positive, high-pace environment.
- Lead daily kitting and hand-pack production lines assembling boxes and bags for retail and e-commerce customers.
- Plan labor and assign associates to lines based on work orders, volumes, and due dates.
- Manage one-piece flow and piece-rate production, hitting hourly units-per-hour (UPH) and throughput goals while maintaining quality.
- Monitor line balance, identify bottlenecks, and make real-time adjustments to keep orders on schedule.
- Ensure presentation standards: correct items, counts, labeling, inserts, and overall appearance of kits for consumer brands.
- Maintain a clean, organized, and safe production area, enforcing safety and GMP/housekeeping expectations.
- Track and communicate key KPIs (e.g., UPH, labor productivity, quality/defect rates, rework, attendance) and lead daily huddles.
- Train, coach, and cross-train production associates and line leads on standard work and best practices.
- Partner with operations, inventory, and account management teams to ensure materials are staged and orders ship on time.
- Drive a culture of urgency, teamwork, and continuous improvement on the floor.
Must-Have Experience
- 2+ years in a production leadership role specifically in kitting, hand-pack, co-packing, or light assembly (e-commerce, 3PL, contract packaging, or fulfillment center).
- 1+ year supervising or leading teams on production lines (kitting cells, pack lines, or similar).
- Direct experience with high-volume, people-driven production (lines of associates packing, assembling, or re-working product), not heavy equipment or machine-based manufacturing.
- Bilingual: fluent in English and Spanish
Skills and Attributes
- Strong KPI mindset: comfortable using data (UPH, errors, labor hours, scrap/rework) to drive decisions and coach the team.
- Proven ability to lead from the floor: working side-by-side with associates, jumping in to demonstrate pace and quality standards.
- Effective communicator who can give clear instructions, feedback, and recognition in both English and Spanish.
- Organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable managing multiple orders/customers at once in a fast-moving environment.
Nice to Have
- Experience in a 3PL, fulfillment, or contract packaging environment with consumer brands (beauty, personal care, retail).
- Familiarity with one-piece flow, lean concepts, and standard work in a light-manufacturing or fulfillment setting.
- Basic computer skills for production reporting and warehouse/production systems.
Schedule:
Pay/Benefits
- Competitive salary: $23-27 per hour, based on experience
- Health, dental, and vision insurance
- 401(k) with company match
- Paid time off (PTO) and holidays
- Real career growth — we promote from within and we mean it
- Direct access to decision-makers — no corporate ladder to climb just to get an answer
- A team that solves problems together at a company that's actually growing
