Plant General Manager

Job Description

Job Description

Our client, a well-established leader in the manufacturing sector, is seeking an experienced General Manager to oversee full operations of a feed-mill-style production facility. This role is ideal for a proven plant leader who thrives on taking full ownership of a site's success-from production to profitability-and who can lead like a true business owner.

This is a hands-on leadership position with complete responsibility for plant performance, including operational strategy, safety, maintenance, and team development. You will report directly to executive leadership outside the plant, providing the autonomy to run operations with strategic oversight.

Key Responsibilities

Full Site Leadership : Direct and manage all aspects of plant operations, transportation, and customer service functions.

Team Development : Lead, motivate, and mentor a diverse workforce of managers and hourly employees; oversee recruitment, training, development, performance management, and discipline.

Operational Excellence : Drive efficiency and productivity through effective planning, preventive / predictive maintenance programs, and continuous process improvement.

Project Oversight : Plan and execute capital projects, repairs, and facility upgrades while controlling costs.

Compliance & Safety : Ensure full compliance with health, safety, environmental, and regulatory requirements, including permit management.

Financial Management : Manage site P&L, develop budgets, and provide weekly / monthly production and financial reporting.

Qualifications

Experience :

Minimum 5 years of full-site management experience in a manufacturing facility, preferably in a feed mill, grain, agricultural, or related industrial setting.

Proven success managing all plant functions, including P&L, production, maintenance, facility upkeep, and personnel.

Experienced in managing hourly and salaried employees simultaneously.

Proven experience in being hands-on with all facets of a manufacturing facility.

Experience reporting directly to executive leadership (e.g., CEO, VP) rather than plant-level management.

Demonstrated ability to lead with a "business owner" mindset.

Education : Bachelor's degree preferred.

Additional Requirements :

Strong leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills.

Why This Role?

This position offers the opportunity to own the success of an entire operation , with the autonomy to make impactful decisions, implement improvements, and lead a committed team. If you are a results-driven leader ready to take full responsibility for a high-performing facility, we encourage you to apply.
