Duties Description Corcraft is the "brand name" for the NYS Department of Corrections and Community Supervision's correctional industries program. Industries uses manufacturing as a component of the Department's overall reentry program, which is designed to teach inmates work ethic and skills. The program puts inmates' time to good use inside and outside prison. Corcraft uses a business model to guide decisions and balance costs, market prices and other demands from both the correctional system and outside customers. Corcraft employs roughly 285 civilian staff and 1,850 inmates across twenty-six (26) locations throughout New York State.
The Assistant Director for Operations is responsible for serving as a member of Corcraft's leadership team in Central Office, and oversees all manufacturing and distribution operations statewide. In addition, the Assistant Director for Operations manages Corcraft's quality control, production control, and engineering programs, in addition to the abatement program. The Assistant Director of Operations assists with the development of new policies, establishing new manufacturing shops, implementing new products and/or services for the organization, and contributing to the annual business plan and budget process.
The Assistant Director for Operations is an important part of Corcraft's leadership team, managing the day to day Central Office and facility manufacturing and distribution operations.
