About the role
Feed Production Supervisor A national livestock feed company is looking for a Feed Production Supervisor to lead a shift at a busy, mostly cattle-focused feed mill. Reporting to the Mill Manager, you'll keep your crew safe, hit the production schedule, and make sure every batch meets spec. This organization has a proven habit of moving dependable people up as new opportunities open, so this is a strong next step for someone aiming at mill management.
What You'll Do:
- Supervise and coordinate mill operators on your shift, setting priorities and keeping the line running
- Oversee batching, mixing, and pelleting to make sure formulas, volumes, and quality targets are met
- Execute daily and weekly production schedules alongside the Mill Manager
- Train new operators, coach the crew, and hold people to clear standards
- Enforce safety practices and support OSHA, FSMA, and feed quality/food safety programs
- Run sanitation, housekeeping, and preventive maintenance routines on your shift
- Keep accurate production records and report results, downtime, and issues to the Mill Manager
- Spend most of your time on the floor, leading by example
- Background Requirements 2+ years in feed, grain, or food manufacturing, with lead or supervisory experience preferred
- Hands-on knowledge of batching systems and pellet mills is a big plus
- Familiarity with OSHA, FSMA, HACCP, or feed safety programs preferred
- Clear communicator who can keep a crew motivated and accountable
- Willing to work shifts, weekends, or overtime as production demands
Compensation and Benefits:
- $75,000 to $95,000 base salary plus bonus potential
- Medical, dental, and vision insurance
- Paid time off 401(k) with company match

Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
