What We Expect of a Sugar Foods Production Manager
To be a successful Production Manager at Sugar Foods you must:
Commit to Ownership: Ownership leads to accountability, responsibility, and success. The most important aspect to our success is ownership. This includes ownership of your area, your equipment, your processes and most importantly, your people.
Get to Know Your People: In the first three months, it will be critical that you engage your team members and get to know them as individuals. Your primary role is to set your team up for success, remove obstacles, and work through them to meet quality production goals safely.
Commit to Your Schedule and Be Flexible with Time: The second shift runs from 3:30pm to 3:30am. Therefore, it is important for you and your leaders to be present at shift hand-offs, as it will be critical to setting your team up for success. Managing can also require having your supervisors working alternate shifts to cover for a colleague, coming in at off-hours to check-in on your team, and getting involved in side projects. We expect our Managers to put in 10 to 12 hours a day, for 5 days a week.
Be Present and Accessible: The value we provide to our customers starts on our floor, which means our operators, packers, stackers, lift drivers, and sanitors are the foundation of our success. At Sugar Foods, we expect our Production Managers to spend the majority of their time on the floor with their teams observing, guiding, coaching, mentoring, holding team members accountable and appreciating their efforts
Treat Your Team Like Family: At Sugar Foods, we are a family and being family means listening to the needs of your team members, coaching and developing your people, and treating them with respect.
Collaborate with Colleagues: At Sugar Foods, we are one team and we can only win as one team. This means collaborating, supporting, and assisting your colleagues and teammates whenever needed.
Adapt as You Go: Sugar Foods is a dynamic and ever-growing company where flexibility is important. As we continue to expand, automate, and adapt to customer needs we expect our leaders to adjust to the needs of the business and their people. At Sugar Foods, we believe in an all-hands-on-deck mentality when it comes to solving problems. As a leader at Sugar Foods, you will stretch your skills or work on projects that you may not have a lot of background in.
