Line Lead – DHL – Bolton, ON

DHL Supply Chain is looking for a Line Lead to join their team in Bolton, Ontario. As part of one of the world’s largest logistics companies — and a certified Great Place to Work® and Top Employer in Canada — this is a solid opportunity to step into a leadership role on the production floor with a company that genuinely invests in its people.

This daytime, Monday-to-Friday position puts you at the centre of a fast-moving packaging and labelling operation. You’ll be leading line associates, ensuring product quality, and keeping things running safely and efficiently from start to finish. Familiarity with Nulogy PackManager is a strong asset for this role.

About the Role: Line Lead

As a Line Lead, you’re the go-to person on your production line. You’ll be responsible for ensuring that packaging, labelling, and coding are carried out accurately and according to order specifications. That means reviewing all special instructions and checklists before production begins, directing associates through their duties, and making sure every finished product meets quality standards before it heads out the door.

Beyond production itself, this role carries real responsibility for food safety and equipment maintenance. You’ll visually inspect machinery before each shift, ensure proper cleaning between orders to prevent cross-contamination, and uphold all operating procedures to maintain a safe working environment for everyone on your line.

Benefits and Salary

This full-time position pays $20.75 per hour. Full-time associates receive a benefits package that includes medical and dental coverage, basic life insurance, accidental death & dismemberment (AD&D) insurance, short-term disability, and a standard long-term disability option. Optional benefits include DCPP, RRSP, and TFSA retirement savings plans, as well as optional life and critical illness insurance. Associates also receive paid time off (PTO), paid holidays, and access to an education reimbursement program.

Responsibilities

The Line Lead role is hands-on and leadership-focused. You’ll be guiding associates through their daily tasks while making sure production stays on track, product quality is maintained, and food safety protocols are followed at all times. These responsibilities are central to keeping the operation running smoothly and efficiently.

• Review all special instructions and checklists prior to the start of production
• Direct temporary associates by clearly communicating their expected duties on the line
• Inspect all equipment visually to confirm safe and operational condition before each shift
• Package finished goods accurately and in accordance with customer order requirements
• Verify that the correct product label is properly affixed to each finished product
• Ensure machinery is thoroughly cleaned between orders to prevent cross-contamination
• Apply a solid understanding of all operating procedures for line machinery
• Support the assembly and packing line with tasks such as aligning bags, opening boxes, and stacking cases on pallets

Requirements / Skills

The right candidate for this role is someone who’s comfortable taking ownership on the floor and keeping a team organized and on task. Attention to detail, a solid grasp of food safety principles, and a willingness to lead by example are what DHL is looking for in a Line Lead.

• Warehouse experience: 0 to 3 months of experience in a warehouse setting is required
• Machine operation: 6 months of machine operation experience is preferred
