President (manufacturing exp req.) Description

Our client an industrial manufacturing company ($20m revenue) is looking for their next company leader. You will be taking the reins from their current President who is looking to take a step back after 11 years in the role. This role centered south of Milwaukee Wisconsin is with a company that has been in business for over 100 years. At their core they are still a family-owned business with a very inclusive hands-on executive leadership team with a culture that reflects that inclusiveness (they even have team members bring their dogs to work!). They are looking for an executive who will lead their team of 55 into the next generation of innovation but most importantly preserve the culture they already have in place. They are looking for a hands-on leader who understands how to cultivate relationships within each department that allows them to pull the most out of their team. Someone who does not feel they are beyond interacting with customers or team members on the production floor all while still creating business plans that advance their objectives to promote profitably and growth as an organization. If you can speak to your background aligning cross-functional objectives across sales marketing engineering and production this could be an excellent fit. This is not an opportunity that comes along often so whether you have run a business before or have strong senior management experience and are ready for the next step in your career dont miss this chance. You can help shape the future of a respected family-owned company and build a lasting legacy of your own.

Important note : Because our client is a smaller family-owned company the right culture fit and leadership style is pivotal. For that reason previous leadership experience with a company with gross earnings
