Job description

Position Overview

We’re looking for a hands-on, people-first Team Leader to help drive results, inspire excellence, and support a high-performing team in a fast-paced, outdoor operations environment. This role is ideal for someone who thrives on responsibility, enjoys developing others, and has the confidence to lead by example.

As a Team Leader, you'll supervise a small section of general laborers and/or equipment operators, ensuring daily tasks such as loading, shipping, production, and plant maintenance are completed safely, efficiently, and to quality standards. You will not directly manage, but will guide and support, acting as a frontline leader and go-to resource for your team.

What You’ll Do

  • Assign and oversee daily tasks to your team based on operational priorities

  • Monitor work quality, productivity, and adherence to safety protocols

  • Actively participate in work activities alongside the team in an outdoor setting

  • Train, coach, and motivate seasonal and year-round team members on procedures and expectations

  • Support the development of future team leaders through mentorship and performance coaching

  • Uphold and enforce company policies and procedures

  • Assist with cross-functional duties as needed across the facility

  • Provide feedback to management and contribute to process improvements

What We’re Looking For

Required:

  • Strong organizational and time management skills

  • Effective communication skills (both written and verbal)

  • Basic math proficiency

  • Ability to thrive in a fast-moving, high-volume environment

  • Flexibility to rotate across areas (loading, production, field, etc.) as needed

  • Willingness to work overtime and varying schedules based on operational needs

Preferred:

  • Bilingual in English and Spanish (strongly preferred)

  • 1+ year of supervisory experience in this type of work environment

Work Environment & Physical Demands

  • Majority of time spent outdoors in varying weather conditions (dust, allergens, heat, cold)

  • Occasional work in indoor office settings for administrative tasks

  • Requires frequent walking, standing, bending, squatting, reaching, and lifting

  • Ability to lift up to 35 lbs unaided and 50 lbs with assistance

  • Use of machinery and equipment such as table lifters; ability to become certified on internal vehicles

  • May involve occasional confined space work and climbing ladders or scaffolding

Why You’ll Love It Here

  • Be part of a collaborative and supportive team culture

  • Opportunity to lead and grow within a respected and stable company

  • Help shape a positive, productive, and safe work environment

Apply today if you’re ready to step into a leadership role where your impact matters every day.
