Director Of Operations

Kennesaw, GA | On-Site

Lead Operations. Build People. Drive Growth.

Are you a collaborative operations leader who believes great results come from great people?

Iron Age Office is seeking a Director of Operations to help lead our next chapter of growth. This is not a role for a top-down manager or someone who leads by title alone. We are looking for a servant leader who can earn trust, develop people, implement processes, and help scale a unique manufacturing operation while preserving the culture that makes Iron Age special.

At Iron Age Office, we design and manufacture handcrafted commercial furniture entirely under one roof in our 80,000-square-foot production facility in Kennesaw, Georgia. We have built a passionate team, a loyal customer base, and a reputation for quality craftsmanship that continues to fuel our growth.

If you are humble, hungry, smart, and energized by developing teams while improving operations, we'd love to talk with you.

What You'll Do

As Director of Operations, you will serve as the operational leader responsible for turning vision into execution while helping our teams perform at their highest level. You'll work directly with the CEO and lead key production departments across the organization.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and develop the Woodshop, Welding, and Shipping Managers while fostering a culture of trust, accountability, and teamwork.
• Oversee daily manufacturing operations, including woodworking, welding, shipping, receiving, quality, safety, and production efficiency.
• Build strong relationships throughout the organization and earn credibility with a highly engaged, internally developed workforce.
• Help implement and improve systems that connect sales, production, scheduling, and invoicing workflows.
• Lead operational improvement initiatives, KPI development, reporting, and process optimization.
• Support the integration of new manufacturing technology, including a recently added steel laser and future CNC equipment.
• Manage vendor relationships, purchasing, inventory, and supply chain activities.
• Partner closely with the CEO to support continued company growth and operational scalability.

What Success Looks Like

The right person will:

• Earn the trust and respect of the team before implementing change.
• Coach and develop managers rather than dictate to them.
• Create systems and processes that help the company scale efficiently.
• Maintain the collaborative, high-retention culture that has made Iron Age successful.
• Help drive the company's growth toward and beyond its next revenue milestones.
