Production Manager

I solve talent access problems in manufacturing space (Operations, Engineering, Supply Chain, Lean/CI/Opex, Quality)

This role is ideal for a production leader on the rise — someone ready to step into broader responsibility and help elevate how a plant runs.

Our manufacturing client is seeking a hands‑on Production Manager to lead daily operations, strengthen execution, and develop people within a growing 350‑person non‑union manufacturing plant. Experience matters, but leadership mindset, coachability, and the ability to raise the level of others matter more
.

This is not a “sit‑back‑and‑maintain” role. It’s an opportunity to grow alongside a leadership team that wants to do things the right way.

• Lead day‑to‑day manufacturing operations and production flow
• Improve productivity, quality, and labor utilization
• Coach supervisors and help develop future leaders
• Apply lean principles to drive steady, practical improvements
• Partner across functions to strengthen execution and accountability
• Ensure production goals are met in a safe, disciplined environment

• Up‑and‑coming Production Managers or strong Operations Supervisors ready for more
• Leaders with metal fabrication or industrial manufacturing experience
• Engineers or technically grounded leaders who enjoy building people, not just processes
• Managers who lead from the floor and take pride in developing others

• Manufacturing leadership experience (depth matters less than trajectory)
• Exposure to metal fabrication or heavy manufacturing environments
• Lean or continuous improvement experience with real application
• A degree is preferred — engineering backgrounds are especially attractive
• The ability to raise standards without burning people out

• Visible role with room to grow and expand responsibility
• Supportive plant leadership and clear expectations
• Opportunity to shape culture, talent, and execution
• A company committed to developing leaders — not just filling seats

If you’re ready to stretch, lead, and build capability in others — this role is worth a closer look.
