Position Summary The Maintenance Supervisor is the frontline leader responsible for safe and effective execution of maintenance work across the manufacturing floor. This is a floor-focused leadership role, not primarily an administrative position. The Supervisor owns today’s execution: technician deployment, active-job support, break-in control, repair quality, safe work practices, communication with Operations, and the handoff of equipment risk. The Maintenance Planner owns future work readiness and detailed planning.

The Job:    • Receive shift handoff and review equipment currently down, unresolved issues, overnight break-ins, and critical plant risks. • Confirm technician attendance, available skills, and daily work assignments. • Participate in the Daily Tier meeting and communicate maintenance status, risks, expected return-to-service timing, and needed escalation. • Conduct the daily Supervisor/Planner huddle and provide the Planner with field conditions, execution issues, and upcoming access needs. • Spend the majority of the working day on the manufacturing floor supporting maintenance execution. • Visit active maintenance jobs, confirm safe work practices, remove roadblocks, and verify work is progressing to plan. • Coordinate equipment access and production priorities with Operations without allowing every request to become an emergency. • Manage break-in work and document why scheduled work was displaced. • Ensure appropriate LOTO, permits, safe-work requirements, tools, and PPE are in place before and during maintenance work. • Verify repair quality and support proper equipment turnover before returning equipment to normal service. • Identify temporary repairs and ensure permanent corrective work is created and prioritized. • Recognize repeat failures and trigger escalation for RCA or reliability review when needed. • Review technician work-order closeout for meaningful findings, labor, failure information, parts usage, and follow-up work. • Coach technicians on troubleshooting, precision repair, housekeeping, maintenance standards, and work-order discipline. • Provide a clear end-of-shift handoff for unresolved equipment, safety, parts, and production risks.

What This Role Owns • Safe and effective execution of maintenance work during the shift. • Technician assignments, coaching, accountability, and field support. • Management of legitimate emergency and break-in work. • Protection of the approved schedule whenever plant conditions allow. • Repair-quality verification and accurate work-order feedback.

The Person:     • Strong industrial maintenance background with practical mechanical and/or electrical experience. • Minimum of an Associate's degree with 3-5 years of leadership experience • Demonstrated ability to lead technicians in a manufacturing environment. • Working knowledge of LOTO, safe work, permits, and industrial maintenance hazards. • Ability to prioritize multiple equipment issues without losing control of scheduled work. • Working knowledge of CMMS work orders and maintenance documentation. • Strong communication and problem-solving skills. 

The Details:  You’ll receive a competitive salary and a great benefits plan, including:  • Medical, dental, life, vision, disability, 401(k), Employee Stock Purchase Plan, paid time off, and tuition reimbursement in addition to programs & benefits in support of your well-being. 

• Discounts on Stanley Black & Decker tools and other partner programs. 

And More:  We want our company to be a place you’ll want to be – and stay. Being part of our team means you’ll get to:   • Grow:  Be part of our global company with 20+ brands to grow and develop your skills along multiple career paths.  

• Learn:  Have access to a wealth of learning resources, including our digital learning portal.  

• Belong:  Experience an awesome place to work, where we have mutual respect and a great appreciation for a wide range of perspectives and experiences.
