As a Operations Supervisor at Coastal Waste & Recycling, you'll lead the daily operations of our post-collection facilities while ensuring safe, compliant, and efficient processing of materials.
At Coastal, our Post Collections Operations Supervisors do more than oversee facilities—they develop people, strengthen operations, champion safety, and help protect the communities we serve.

Lead, coach, and develop a high-performing operations team while creating an engaged and accountable workplace.
Own the staffing of your operation by partnering with the Career Path team to recruit, interview, hire, onboard, and retain top talent.
Conduct daily crew-outs, crew-ins, facility inspections, and safety huddles to prepare employees for a safe and successful day.
Promote and maintain a strong safety culture through coaching, observations, safety initiatives, and ongoing employee development.
Ensure incoming material is safely directed, properly distributed, and efficiently processed while maximizing throughput and operational performance.
Partner with technicians, Maintenance, Environmental, Safety, Engineering, and third-party vendors to maintain safe, reliable, and efficient facility operations.
Ensure loader operators, equipment operators, and facility personnel operate safely while maintaining productivity and compliance with company standards.
Build positive working relationships with municipal representatives, environmental agencies, inspectors, customers, contractors, and third-party vendors visiting the facility.
Maintain a clean, organized, and environmentally compliant operation while ensuring all permits, contracts, and regulatory requirements are followed.
Partner with fellow Operations Supervisors to share resources, solve operational challenges, and support company-wide success.
Coach employees through performance feedback, recognition, and ongoing development while preparing future operational leaders.
At Coastal, we win as a team. Our Operations Supervisors lead by example and do whatever is necessary to ensure safe, compliant, and efficient facility operations while delivering exceptional service to our customers and communities.
What You'll Bring
Leadership experience in transportation, logistics, waste management, recycling, environmental services, construction, manufacturing, mining, aggregates, or another operational environment.
Passion for developing people and building high-performing teams.
Strong communication, coaching, and decision-making skills.
Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment while managing multiple priorities.
