About Pierce, An Oshkosh Company

Pierce Manufacturing builds trucks that protect people and communities around the world. Since 1913, the company has evolved from building truck bodies on Model T Ford chassis to creating highly customized, carefully designed pumpers, aerials, tankers and rescue units. Our trucks are designed to perform under the toughest conditions. We are looking for a hands-on, people-first leader to own 1st shift operations at our main assembly plant, overseeing the production line.

You will have the opportunity to drive performance, coach frontline teams, and ensure a seamless handoff from 1st to 2nd shift—all while building a culture of accountability, safety, and high-quality output.

Your Impact

  • Lead the Floor : Be an influential on-site leader for 1st shift—visibility and influence set the tone each day.
  • Inspire and Guide : Coach and develop a team of Production Supervisors and Team Representatives to hit goals and unlock potential.
  • Drive Results : Ensure production milestones are safely met, with focus on quality, throughput, and employee engagement.
  • Champion Continuous Improvement : Lead discussions, remove barriers, and implement better ways of working using Lean principles.
  • Bridge the Shift Gap : Create smooth transitions from 1st to 2nd shift through clear communication and proactive issue-solving.
  • Operational Stewardship : Manage budgets and resource planning while helping innovate processes to reduce costs and boost efficiency.

Basic Qualifications

  • At least 6 years of leadership experience in manufacturing or related production environments
  • A self-starter who thrives with autonomy and leads by example
  • Comfortable making real-time decisions on the floor and aligning cross-shift priorities
  • Passionate about team development, coaching, and communication
  • Motivated by operational excellence, continuous improvement, and safety-first manufacturing
  • Standout Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Business, Operations Management, or Manufacturing Engineering
  • Familiarity with production scheduling, Lean tools, and continuous improvement methodologies
  • Ability to implement and drive lean manufacturing and continuous improvement processes
  • Heavy equipment or automotive manufacturing experience at the management level
  • Pay Range

    $91,800.00 - $153,200.00

    The above pay range reflects the minimum and maximum target pay for the position across all U.S. locations. Individual pay is determined by factors including experience, education, skills, and equity of pay among team members.
