Lasting Supervisor

Position summary

Own the shape of the boot. Run the pulling-over, toe, side and heel lasting sequence, and control the last inventory so it never gates the schedule.

Essential functions

• Sequence work across pulling-over, toe lasting, side lasting and heel seat lasting.
• Set machine parameters for last shape, upper material and style. Verify against the master sample.
• Control the last inventory: count, condition, size run availability, and the pull-and-return cycle.
• Inspect lasted uppers for symmetry, toe spring, heel seat fit and wrinkling. Reject and rework before Bottoming, not after.
• Manage the heat and setting cycle so the shape holds once the last is pulled.
• Train and certify lasters. Maintain the department skill matrix.
