• Conduct inspections, pre-operational walk-throughs, and internal audits; drive corrective actions to closure
• Train sanitation staff on chemical handling, equipment breakdown and cleaning, food safety expectations, and safe work practices
• Maintain accountability for labor utilization, chemical usage, sanitation effectiveness, and documentation accuracy
• Collaborate with Production, Maintenance, Quality, and Safety teams to support uptime and minimize contamination risks

• Proven leadership, training, and accountability skills
• Hands-on, floor-focused management style with the ability to lead by example
