Manufacturing Production Manager
Are you an experienced manufacturing supervisor ready to step into a full management role? Or are you a seasoned pro looking to escape the 24/7 chaos of a massive plant? We are looking for a hands-on Production Manager to lead our tight-knit manufacturing team. Unlike massive corporate facilities with endless red tape, this is a streamlined 2-line operation with fewer than 20 employees across two shifts. This means you will have true ownership of the floor, a highly predictable schedule, and a work environment where your impact is noticed daily. It's a stable company that's been in operation for over 50 years and has a continuous improvement mindset with people, processes, and equipment.
Why This Role is Different
- True Work-Life Balance: No rotating shifts, rare weekend work, and minimal off-hours emergencies.
- Manageable Scale: Lead a stable, friendly team of under 20 people where you actually know everyone's name.
- Career Launchpad: Perfect opportunity to secure a "Manager" title and build foundational leadership skills.
Core Responsibilities
- Oversee daily operations for our 2-line production floor to meet output goals.
- Lead, coach, and schedule a small, dedicated team of assembly/production workers.
- Ensure product quality standards and strict adherence to safety protocols.
- Basic troubleshooting of equipment issues on the line alongside the team when needed.
- Monitor inventory levels of raw materials and track daily production logs.
Qualifications
- 2+ years of leadership experience in a manufacturing setting (e.g., Manager, Line Supervisor, or Coordinator).
- Strong communication skills with a natural ability to motivate a small team.
- Hands-on mentality—you enjoy being out on the floor, not trapped in an office all day.
- Basic computer skills for tracking production data and schedules.
- Must be eligible to work in the United States without the need for sponsorship now or in the future. Relocation Assistance is available
Benefits: 401k with company match, PTO, health, dental, vision, as well as 100% company paid wellness planning, parental leave, FSA, short/long-term disability, basic life, AD&D, tuition reimbursement, and more.
