At DACO, we’re building an operation that runs with consistency, accountability, and structure—not one that relies on constant oversight or individual heroics. We’re focused on creating teams that can execute reliably, processes that are repeatable, and systems that support how work actually gets done. We’re looking for an Operations Supervisor who can help bring that to life day-to-day. In this role, you’ll be the right hand to the Operations Manager, leading execution across warehouse and purchasing functions. You’ll develop people, keep work moving, and improve how things run—so the operation performs whether you’re in the room or not. What You’ll Do This role sits at the center of daily operations. You’ll lead the team, keep execution tight, and make sure nothing stalls. Lead, coach, and develop a small but critical team across warehouse, inventory, fabrication, and purchasing Run the daily rhythm—huddles, priorities, capacity, and issue resolution Stay close to the work—on the floor and in the details—while keeping the bigger picture in mind Hold the line on accountability, performance, and follow-through Identify what’s slowing the team down and fix it Standardize how work gets done so it’s consistent, repeatable, and scalable Partner closely with the Operations Manager to stay aligned on priorities and direction Communicate clearly across teams when there are constraints, risks, or changes What This Role Is (and Isn’t) This role is: Hands-on and highly involved in day-to-day execution A leadership role focused on people, performance, and process A key support to the Operations Manager—not a standalone operator This role is not: A desk-only management job A place to maintain the status quo A role where you wait to be told what to do Who You Are You build people up—and it shows in their results. You know how to hold a standard, have the hard conversation, and still keep people motivated and engaged. You move fast—and make fast feel organized. You bring structure to chaos. You don’t let things pile up or stall out. You don’t ignore problems—you fix them. If something isn’t working, you address it. You don’t pass it along or wait it out. You take ownership. You follow through, close loops, and make sure things get done. You stay aligned. You don’t operate in a silo—you communicate, escalate when needed, and work in step with leadership. You're comfortable not having all the answers. But you're not comfortable staying that way. When something's unclear, you ask. When something's wrong, you own it. You don't wait to be told what needs to happen next. What You Bring 4+ years of direct people leadership experience (required) Experience in warehouse operations, distribution, or material handling (required) Experience in purchasing, procurement, or inventory is a strong plus Proven ability to improve processes and drive consistency in how work gets done Strong problem-solving skills with a solutions-oriented mindset Ability to operate with urgency while maintaining organization and structure Experience working in an ERP system (Acumatica or similar preferred) Strong communication skills across all levels—from the floor to leadership High school diploma or equivalent required; additional education or certifications in operations, supply chain, or related field preferred Benefits That Match Your Dedication!
