AP Corp is seeking a results-driven, detail-focused leader to own the flow of projects from sale to install. This role is designed for someone who thrives in fast-paced, high-stakes environments and who wants a clear path into full operations leadership .

If you’re decisive, structured, and thrive on accountability — this is your seat at the table.

The Role

This is a phased leadership track :

Phase 1 (Coordinator) : Take control of scheduling, materials, and project organization.

Phase 2 (Production Leadership) : Oversee production scheduling, quality control, and eliminate bottlenecks.

Phase 3 (Operations Manager) : Own materials management, supervise the Wraps Account Manager, and drive gross profit performance across all projects.

Your Responsibilities

Command the workflow : From order to packaging, you’ll ensure nothing slips through the cracks.

Control materials : Everything in, everything out — staged correctly, tracked precisely, and optimized for cost.

Drive accountability : Supervise the Wraps Account Manager, mentor production staff, and enforce standards.

Protect profitability : Manage labor and materials against budgets and own gross profit outcomes.

Engineer efficiency : Design and refine processes that reduce waste, speed up execution, and raise quality.

Report & improve : Track KPIs and recommend changes that increase operational performance.

Who You Are

Decisive : You move quickly, make confident calls, and take ownership of outcomes.

Detail-Obsessed : You thrive on structure, process, and accuracy — no detail gets missed.

Accountable : You want responsibility for results, not just tasks.

Strategic & Tactical : You can shift from leading a meeting to solving a materials bottleneck without skipping a beat.

Driven by Results : Hitting goals and protecting margins motivates you as much as recognition.
