Job Description
This opportunity is with a leading food production and warehouse company dedicated to delivering high-quality products within a dynamic and fast-paced environment. The company is known for its commitment to safety, operational excellence, and continuous improvement. Operating in refrigerated and frozen environments with advanced production and facility systems, it serves as a critical supplier in the food industry, ensuring product freshness and safety through stringent regulatory compliance and maintenance standards. This position offers employment with an annual incentive plan bonus and a comprehensive benefits package that includes health insurance, paid time off, retirement benefits, and more. The role is full-time with occasional travel of up to 10 percent to support regional maintenance operations.
The Maintenance Manager will lead and oversee all aspects of maintenance operations for production and facility systems, including grinders, Multivac machines, HVAC, ammonia refrigeration, and other essential equipment. The position holds key responsibility for managing a team of maintenance technicians and mechanics, ensuring the effective execution of preventive and corrective maintenance programs to minimize downtime and maintain operational readiness. Utilizing a Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS), the manager will schedule maintenance tasks, track repairs, and analyze performance data to continuously improve maintenance operations. A critical part of the role includes ensuring compliance with OSHA, EPA, USDA, and other relevant regulatory standards through diligent documentation, routine audits, and collaboration with Risk Management and insurance carriers to address audit findings and mitigate risks.
In addition to day-to-day maintenance supervision, this leader will coordinate vendors and contractors, overseeing performance management, service contracts, and Certificate of Insurance (COI) documentation. The role demands strategic foresight to develop and execute long-range capital maintenance and replacement plans, including budgeting, forecasting, and business case justification for capital investments. Operating within a physical environment that includes temperatures ranging from 35°F to 45°F in refrigerated zones and as low as -10°F in freezers, this position requires the ability to navigate industrial settings, handle tools and equipment safely, and sometimes lift up to 50 pounds.
Working closely with production leadership, the Maintenance Manager will ensure the facility’s infrastructure - including sanitation systems, office space, docks, and building grounds - meets operational standards. The role requires strong interpersonal skills to engage with employees, customers, and vendors professionally across all levels of the organization. Continuous improvement, safety adherence, and equipment reliability are top priorities. This role offers the chance to make a significant impact in a critical operational area of a respected company, driving efficiency and safety within its facility systems.
