Lead plant operations at a growing manufacturer in the greater Danbury area of CT — with direct influence over a next-generation ERP rollout and a clear path into senior leadership as the current team heads toward retirement.
Operations Manager
Location:
The Greater Danbury Area, Onsite
Salary: $120,000-$140,000
Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
- Step into a next-generation leadership role as senior department heads approach retirement
- Lead a team of direct reports across planning/buying, quality, production, and shipping/receiving

- Gain international exposure with occasional travel to the UK for management meetings
- Broad, high-impact scope spanning production, quality, purchasing, maintenance, and supply chain
- Influence strategic planning around capacity, resource allocation, and process improvement
- Consistent, predictable schedule — 5-day work week, fully onsite
Key Responsibilities for the Operations Manager:
- Lead all plant operations, including production, quality assurance, purchasing, and logistics
- Develop operational strategies supporting productivity, safety, and cost-efficiency
- Monitor production KPIs (throughput, yield, downtime, on-time delivery) and drive improvements
- Manage manufacturing schedules, staffing levels, and resource allocation
- Lead root cause analysis and corrective action processes for production issues
- Develop and monitor operational budgets and capital expenditures
Qualifications for the Operations Manager:
- At least 5 years of experience in Operations or Supply Chain management in a managerial/leadership capacity
- Strong people management and communication skills
- Proficiency with Microsoft Office/365 suite
- Experience with ERP systems (Microsoft Business Central a plus)
