Plant Manager

Lead the floor. Drive results. Build a winning operation.

We are seeking a hands-on, results-driven Plant Manager to lead all shop floor operations for a growing manufacturing facility. This is a high-impact leadership role for someone who thrives in fast-paced production environments, loves solving complex problems, and knows how to turn people, processes, and equipment into a high-performing operation.

You will own production performance, cost control, quality, safety, and on-time delivery - while building a culture of accountability, efficiency, and continuous improvement.

• Lead all manufacturing, quality, maintenance, and engineering functions
• Drive production performance while controlling costs, scrap, rework, and waste
• Ensure customer orders ship on time with minimal work-in-process
• Improve EBIT through lean initiatives, productivity gains, and smart capital investments
• Develop and execute production schedules aligned to sales and capacity
• Oversee safety, environmental compliance, housekeeping, and plant security
• Build and lead high-performing teams through coaching, accountability, and communication
• Partner with leadership on budgets, KPIs, staffing, and operational strategy
• Champion continuous improvement, quality systems, and employee engagement
• Serve as a visible leader on the shop floor and in the community

• Profitability, productivity, cost reductions, and budget performance
• Quality metrics, warranty performance, and on-time delivery
• Safety, training, employee development, retention, and morale
• Process improvements, technology adoption, and operational efficiency

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Business, or Industrial Management (preferred)
• 10+ years of manufacturing experience, including 4+ years in senior leadership
• Strong background in production planning, cost controls, and labor management
• Proven ability to lead, motivate, and develop teams
• Analytical mindset with strong problem-solving skills
• Comfortable using data, KPIs, and spreadsheets to drive decisions
• Clear, confident communicator at all levels

• Hands-on manufacturing environment
• PPE required on the shop floor
• Must be able to walk the plant, lift up to 50 lbs, and work in an industrial setting

This is not a "desk" Plant Manager role. You'll have real ownership, real influence, and the ability to shape the future of the operation. If you love leading people, fixing broken processes, and driving results - this is your next career move.
