Job Order Detail

Description

We are a privately owned manufacturing company currently tracking $2.1$3.0M in annual revenue, prior to the impact of new production capacity. A new machine coming online in Q2 has effectively doubled our production capability, creating an immediate opportunity for profitable growth.

Ownership has historically been involved in day-to-day operations. This role exists to transition that responsibility to a General Manager who can run the business, protect margin, and convert available capacity into disciplined execution.

This company is in a builder phase, not a polish phase.

Key Responsibilities

Own day-to-day operations and execution

Align staffing, inventory, and scheduling with increased capacity

Maintain margin discipline as the business grows

Support a sales team of 23 people, including corporate accounts

Ensure pricing, volume, and growth decisions remain profitable

Work alongside an in-house controller who manages bill payment and cost controls

Lead the business day-to-day with clear decision-making authority

Reporting Cadence

Every 30 days, provide a written report outlining:

What is on target and what is not

Revenue and gross margin performance

Key risks or constraints

A clear next-90-day outlook

Who This Role Is For

Proven private-sector operations or business leadership experience

Comfortable in a small-team, hands-on environment

Strong financial literacy and margin awareness

Self-directed, accountable, and execution-focused

This role is not suited for highly structured, union-driven, or public-sector backgrounds.

Interview Process:
We value speed, clarity, and mutual fit, and we respect candidates time.  Strong candidates can expect the process to move from first conversation to decision in weeks, not months.

Application requirement: Include the phrase builder phase in your application.
