* Use the site's CMMS/CRM system to drive service levels and general management
* Get hands-on with maintenance and repairs alongside your team when needed

What You'll Bring

* The ability to motivate and develop a team, backed by strong communication and leadership skills
* A flexible approach, comfortable adapting to changing production needs
