Production Supervisor/Manager

Overview:
Beckson is hiring for someone to join a rich tradition spanning over 70 years, during which they’ve consistently delivered high-quality marine equipment and accessories. But it’s not just about great products; it’s about reliability when it matters most. Imagine your hand pump not failing during a storm, or your boat hook standing strong as you deftly dock. That’s the Beckson value—products that won’t let you down when you’re out on the water. They’ve even pioneered the use of plastics in marine pumps, including the world’s first dependable, self-priming, all-plastic bilge pump.
