Lead and mentor departmental managers; build a culture of accountability

Teach and deploy Lean tools at all levels

Spearhead major projects : plant layouts, capital equipment installations, and process transformations

Act as the bridge between leadership, teams, and the manufacturing floor

What You Bring

A people-centered leadership style that builds trust and performance

10+ years in manufacturing operations; proven results driving improvements

5+ years leading a large segment or full plant operation

Strong Lean expertise and enterprise-level process improvement experience

Solid technical foundation; CNC knowledge strongly preferred

Excellent communicator, problem-solver, and decision-maker

Role Details

Full-time, multi-site leadership role

Travel up to 25%

Mix of office + hands-on floor presence

Competitive compensation package

Ideal Background
