  • Participate in operational budgeting, capital planning, and execution of approved improvement and automation projects.
  • Monitor key operational metrics (scrap, efficiency, delivery, inventory, margin) and implement corrective actions as needed.
  • Ensure compliance with all safety, environmental, and regulatory requirements while actively promoting a strong EHS culture.

  • 8+ years of progressive experience within industrial manufacturing environments.
  • 4+ years of formalized leadership responsibility.
  • Extensive Lean/CI skillset with proven ability to implement these tools to drive operational performance improvements.
