About the role
The Cedar Rapids Fulfillment Center supports a high-volume, fast-moving supply chain operation with fluctuating seasonal demand, multiple product categories, and tight service-level expectations. The Operations Manager owns results for a shift of about 20 hourly employees and is accountable for the full operating picture for their department — safety, quality, productivity, and cost — not just day-to-day supervision. This is a leadership role for someone ready to own outcomes, not just oversee a shift.

- Drive continuous improvement through problem-solving, process ownership, and cross-shift coordination
- Recruit, onboard, and train new team members to keep the team staffed and ready
- Partner across shifts and departments to keep the building running as one operation
