  • Manage Performance: Monitor labor use, budgets, and KPIs to deliver strong operational and financial results.
  • Drive Improvement: Share best practices across accounts and help implement consistent standards region-wide.

  • People Developer: You coach and uplift teams, even under pressure.
  • Communicator: You’re clear, professional, and audience-aware.
  • Collaborator: You partner with cross-functional teams and clients to get results.
  • Adaptable Leader: You thrive in dynamic, “go-where-needed” environments.



What You Bring

  • Experience: 7+ years in sanitation or food manufacturing leadership, managing multiple sites or large teams.

  • Safety Leadership: Proficiency in LOTO, HAZCOMM, and PPE standards.
