Full Job Description

JOB SUMMARY

The Operations Manager is responsible for managing and supervising employees and all phases of terminal operations activities including the cost-efficient use of labor and stevedore equipment, supervision of labor, and preparation and distribution of comprehensive and accurate operations reports.

ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS

SUPERVISION OF LABOR

The incumbent is expected to supervise all hourly-paid employees working in the assigned area. This is to be accomplished primarily through the management and direction of longshore foremen, supercargoes, and chief supervisors, and through the direct supervision of planners. The incumbent will be held accountable for the performance of employees under the incumbent’s supervision. The incumbent will have the authority to, and is expected to exercise authority, in each of the following areas:

Recruitment

Interview candidates for steady positions, including foremen, supercargoes, chief supervisors and planners, all steady longshore labor, and department staff. Make the final hiring decisions.

Work Assignments

Determine manning requirements and assign employees to work shifts (day-swing-night and weekend). Authorize extra pay and overtime.
Accountable for the work performed by employees under the incumbent’s supervision to ensure that all work assignments are completed properly and safely.
Responsible for all decisions with respect to scheduling and interruption in work.
Determine amount of labor and equipment necessary to cost-effectively satisfy the customer’s requirements.
Decide how a ship will be worked by extending work shifts if necessary to meet vessel’s sailing time.
Keep accurate payroll records. Review and sign original timesheets prior to processing.
Conduct periodic performance assessments.

Discipline

Decide upon and carry out discipline, or direct longshore foremen, supercargoes, and chief supervisors to carry out discipline, in accordance with Collective Bargaining Agreements (CBAs).
Investigate the facts concerning alleged misconduct and poor performance by longshore personnel, and make decisions whether to fire (i.e., send back to the hall) and whether to file an employer complaint. Prepare employer complaints when warranted ensuring accuracy in the description of the incident. Represent the Company at the LRC meeting.
Take immediate and corrective action when labor is not carrying out work properly or safely. Includes warning, citing, or terminating the worker, consistent with applicable longshore contractual agreements.
Utilize the applicable labor agreements and grievance adjustment procedures.
Adjustment of Grievances - Any grievance brought to the incumbent’s attention will be handled expeditiously. The incumbent will investigate the issue thoroughly and use independent judgment in adjusting the grievance. If the grievance carriers over to another part of the TraPac operation, the incumbent will work with the manager responsible for that area.

ALLOCATION OF LABOR

Distribute steady labor to ensure best possible coverage for each operation. Must know the strengths and weaknesses of the labor force to determine what assignment would best suite the requirements of the operation.
Order supplemental labor through the various dispatch halls, ever mindful of specific times for ordering and canceling labor for each shift.
Study and apply all labor allocation rules and track the number of steady clerks and bosses, as well as clerks and bosses from the hall.
Study and apply union rules regarding dispatching, crane operator manning and steady skilled workers.

TERMINAL OPERATIONS

Ensure the strict adherence with the International Maritime Dangerous Cargo code and the Code of Federal Regulations (IMDG and CFR) for hazardous cargo.
Instruct frontline supervision at the start of each shift regarding maintaining a safe working environment at all times. Give safety talks regarding the safe and proper method of performing job duties and the wearing of safety equipment and proper P.P.E.
Prepare a productivity report for assigned department. This report must be updated on a shift-by-shift basis and includes manpower for each shift. The report must be balanced against the dispatch log at the end of each shift.
Coordinate closely with M&R (Maintenance and Repair) to ensure equipment demand/availability and triage plans are executed.
Coordinate vessel schedules, pro-forma integrity, gang structure and oversight/assignment of dispatch, steady scheduling and LRCs.

VESSEL OPERATIONS

Constantly monitor the progress of vessel operation and make adjustments when necessary. Communicate with the vessel agent regarding all aspects of the operation.
Prepare a vessel productivity report for each vessel. This report must be updated on a shift-by-shift basis and includes manpower for each shift. The report must be balanced against the supercargo shift report at the end of each shift. The report is then totaled and detailed against inbound and outbound cargo manifests and submitted to Senior Management.

YARD AND GATE OPERATIONS

Direct, supervise and analyze all gate and yard preplanning activities and their overall physical operation, in order to ensure customer servicing requirements are met.

RAIL OPERATIONS (If Applicable)
