Lead Plant Operator
Bridgeport, CT | $56.00 to $61.00 per hour

A power generation facility in Bridgeport, CT is seeking an experienced Lead Plant Operator to oversee daily plant operations across a 12-hour rotating shift schedule. This is a senior operations role responsible for directing plant operators, driving optimal megawatt output, and ensuring the facility runs safely and within all environmental and reliability compliance requirements. The position reports to the Operations Manager and serves as the primary operational authority on shift.

Schedule: 12-hour rotating shifts supporting continuous plant operations. Overtime, on-call availability, and occasional weekend and holiday coverage required.

Compensation: $56.00 to $61.00 per hour. Benefits include medical, dental, and vision insurance; 401(k); and paid time off.

What You'll Do

The Lead Plant Operator manages all operational activities at the facility during assigned shifts, directing the implementation of the Operating Plan and ensuring that dispatch outputs are met safely and in compliance with all regulatory requirements.

Environmental compliance is a core accountability of this role. You will oversee the Environmental QA/QC Manual, ensure the facility meets all environmental regulatory requirements, and report environmental incidents and near misses to the EHS Coordinator, Operations Manager, or General Manager as appropriate.

As the senior operator on shift, you will direct, coach, and develop plant operators. Responsibilities include managing and maintaining the plant Training Manual for the Operations department, preparing compliance reports for management reflecting safety, environmental, and revenue performance, and keeping Operations Manuals current. You will also support the screening and hiring of operating personnel as requested, assist with inventory tracking and ordering of chemicals, gases, and lubricants, and refer collective bargaining agreement and HR matters to the Operations Manager promptly.
