Job Description:
Leadman & Associatesis searching for aSenior Plant Managerto lead one of the most complex Food & Beverage manufacturing facilities within a well-established organization. This is much more than a traditional Sr. Plant Manager role.
You'll lead a 24/7 manufacturing operation overseeing Production, Maintenance, Quality, HR, Safety, and overall business performance. This facility also serves as the company's hub for specialty products and new product commercialization, offering a unique opportunity to influence both operations and innovation.
Why You Should Consider This Role
High Salary with 10% bonus
Own plant performance, safety, quality, production, and financial results
High visibility with executive leadership
Opportunity to expand into new product development and commercialization
Stable operation with low turnover and positive labor relations
Relocation and sign-on assistance available
Excellent long-term career growth potential
In This Role, You Will:
Lead all plant operations, including Production, Maintenance, Quality, HR, and Safety
Drive continuous improvement, operational efficiency, and cost management
Build and develop a high-performing leadership team
Improve production scheduling across a diverse product portfolio
Lead food safety, quality, and regulatory compliance
Partner on capital projects and long-term operational strategy
Help shape future new product development initiatives
What You Bring
10+ years of manufacturing leadership experience
Experience leading teams of 60+ employees
Food & Beverage manufacturing experience required
Dairy manufacturing experience strongly preferred
Union leadership experience preferred
Budget ownership and operational KPI management
Continuous improvement and capital project experience
Bachelor's degree required
Strong business acumen and exceptional people leadership
The Ideal Leader
This role is ideal for a leader who combines operational excellence with strong people leadership.
Experience leading or supportingnew product development, commercialization, or product launchesis a significant advantage and offers tremendous long-term growth potential within the organization.
The right person is visible, collaborative, and curious. Someone who develops people, builds trust on the production floor, and creates accountability through coaching rather than micromanagement.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
This is an opportunity to lead one of the organization's most strategically important manufacturing facilities while helping shape future product innovation.
You'll improve operations today while playing an increasing role in bringing tomorrow's products to market.
If you're looking for your next senior manufacturing leadership opportunity, apply today!
