Job Description
Multi-Site Operations Manager – Northwest Wisconsin
Our client is an established, growing 200 person durable goods manufacturer seeking a hands-on Operations Manager to provide senior leadership across three manufacturing facilities and approximately 150–170 production employees. Reporting directly to the President, this person will lead Production Managers and oversee safety, quality, productivity, staffing, labor efficiency, cost control and leadership development across day, night and weekend operations.
This is a healthy business with strong customer relationships, reliable operating data and a team ready for fresh leadership. The right person will spend time learning the organization before driving thoughtful improvement. Leadership ability matters more than exact product experience.
We would classify this as a "good to great" situation. It is profitable and ready to evolve to the next level. Very receptive workforce!
Candidates should be visible on the floor, analytical, patient, decisive and capable of building engagement and accountability without becoming either authoritarian or a “wet noodle.”
Experience in multi-site manufacturing, metal fabrication, building products, HVAC equipment, engineered-to-order products, industrial components or comparable durable-goods manufacturing would transfer well. Lean, ERP/MRP and manager-development experience are important. A degree is preferred but not required; UW–Stout alumni are especially attractive.
The northwest Wisconsin location offers affordable living, acreage and excellent access to lakes, hunting, fishing, boating, skiing, ATV trails and snowmobiling.
