Look for ways to improve production, equipment utilization, cycle times, staffing, and overall operational efficiency. Protect company equipment and understand that equipment care directly impacts production and profitability. Hold employees accountable while providing the coaching and support necessary for them to succeed. Develop Leads and operators into stronger employees and future leaders. Work collaboratively with Maintenance, Heavy Haul, other Rango sites, customers, and company leadership. Take initiative when something needs to be done rather than waiting to be told.

Conduct required workplace examinations and ensure safety standards are consistently followed. Ensure proper equipment inspections, defect reporting, housekeeping, and equipment care. Monitor equipment availability, utilization, downtime, staffing, and production. Identify operational problems and develop solutions before they impact production.

Foremen are expected to actively mentor employees, provide meaningful coaching and challenges, and identify individuals with the ability and desire to take on greater responsibility. We believe in promoting from within and creating opportunities for employees who demonstrate initiative, accountability, technical ability, and leadership potential. Your success as a Foreman will not be measured only by what you accomplish yourself—it will be measured by the team you build and the leaders you develop.
