Job Description

A growing manufacturing company in Clinton Township is seeking a hands-on Plant Manager to oversee day-to-day operations in a small, fast-moving facility. This person will lead a team of roughly 25 employees and serve as the key driver of production quality, workflow, and plant efficiency.

This role is ideal for someone who is confident stepping onto the floor, solving problems in real time, and guiding a team while keeping the entire operation in view. We’re looking for a leader who is firm when needed, supportive when appropriate, and comfortable mentoring, coaching, and holding people accountable.

What You’ll Do:

  • Lead daily plant operations and support a team of about 25 employees
  • Delegate tasks, set expectations, and ensure strong follow-through
  • Mentor and develop team leads while providing direct feedback and discipline when needed
  • Oversee workflow, production sequencing, and resource planning
  • Partner with the Director of Operations to build or refine processes
  • Identify bottlenecks and make operational decisions that improve efficiency
  • Maintain safety, quality, and production standards across the facility
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives using Lean, 5S, or similar methodologies
  • Ensure clear communication across all departments and shifts

What We’re Looking For:

  • Experience managing teams in a manufacturing or production environment
  • Comfortable in a working manager role (not an office-only position)
  • Strong leadership presence with the ability to delegate, coach, and discipline
  • Ability to stay organized, think ahead, and manage the full operation rather than one task at a time
  • Experience building processes and improving workflows
  • Knowledge of Lean, 5S, or continuous improvement methodologies preferred
  • Background in fabrication, assembly, woodworking, or similar production settings is a plus

Why This Role Matters:

This is a small facility with a growing operation. The Plant Manager will set the tone, drive performance, and ensure the entire plant runs smoothly. The right person will have the opportunity to make an immediate impact and help shape how the operation grows.

If you’re a hands-on leader who enjoys solving problems, developing people, and running a strong production floor, this is a great opportunity to step in and lead a team that’s ready for the next level.
