Plant Manager – Advanced Industrial Equipment
Madison, Indiana (onsite)
Bring your manufacturing leadership to a growing facility that machines, welds, paints, and assembles heavy electro-mechanical equipment . Following a recent automation upgrade, the site is ready for a Plant Manager who can take safety, quality, delivery, cost, and culture to the next level.
Why this role will excite you
- High impact = high visibility: Own all operations for a 300-plus-employee plant that ships mission-critical equipment across North America.
- Fresh capital & new tech: Lead the start-up of an automated production line and shape future investments in robotics, IoT-enabled machinery, and data-driven continuous improvement.
- Make your mark: The leadership team wants bold ideas—whether that’s revamping flow, driving a zero-injury culture, or pushing OEE into world-class territory.
What you’ll do
- Champion safety first , then quality, delivery, and cost in a metal-fab, machining, paint, and final-assembly environment.
- Coach a skilled team of production, maintenance, CI, and supply-chain leaders; set clear KPIs and hold the gains.
- Deploy Lean / Six Sigma tools to eliminate waste, shrink lead times, and boost capacity.
- Partner with Engineering and Supply Chain to launch new products and supplier initiatives without disruption.
- Represent the plant to executive leadership—data in hand, future roadmap in mind.
What you bring
- 10+ years of progressive operations leadership in heavy/industrial equipment or complex assembly manufacturing.
- Demonstrated success introducing automation, Lean systems, and CI culture.
- Sharp financial acumen—you’re as comfortable reading a P&L as you are walking the Gemba.
- Inspiring, servant-leader mindset that wins hearts and minds on the floor.
Why apply
Competitive compensation, bonus, full benefits, and relocation support are just the start. More importantly, you’ll own the P&L, the people, and the future trajectory of a flagship facility that’s investing in technology and its workforce.
