My world class chemical company is a global leader in their specialty product niche. I am recruiting a Production Manager for one of their key manufacturing sites in the US. This site continues to grow as the company has been adding production capacity and completing plant upgrades. It is a 5 day a week operation and a fairly automated chemical mixing/blending plant with high speed packaging and palletization processes. I’m looking for a hands-on Production Manager who will lead the production team in coordination with the purchasing, logistics, and maintenance departments to achieve operational objectives. This will include creating and managing daily production schedules, managing the raw material inventory process, continuously measuring and improving operational efficiency, and developing the production team to achieve world-class standards.
Using such concepts as Six Sigma, SPC, and/or lean manufacturing will be important to successfully and continuously improve production. This role will have a key impact on plant profitability and this position affords excellent career growth opportunities within this global company.
Salary is $70-80k and full benefits are included. Please refer to EWE when responding to this position.
