## About the role

Reporting to the Head of Manufacturing Operations, the Plant Manager holds full accountability for day-to-day plant operations across Production, Quality, Engineering, Supply Chain, OpEx, HR, Finance, and EHS.

- 10+ years of progressive manufacturing operations experience, with meaningful time leading a plant floor or plant
- 5+ years of management/supervisory experience with direct reports in a manufacturing environment
- Hands-on experience in electromechanical assembly — mechanical fits, harnessing, wiring, actuators, sensors, and integrated test
- Demonstrated lean/TPS fluency and a real continuous-improvement habit — not just certifications on paper
- Ownership of SQDC metrics with a track record of improving them
