About the Role

The Production Manager is responsible for overseeing daily operations at our Tennessee manufacturing facility, ensuring production activities are executed safely, efficiently, and in alignment with company objectives. This role plays a critical part in driving operational performance, managing teams, and ensuring customer expectations for quality and delivery are consistently achieved.

As this will be a newly established manufacturing facility, the Production Manager will have the unique opportunity to play a foundational role in building and growing operations from the ground up. During the early stages, this position will require a more hands-on approach — supporting production activities directly, helping establish and train on processes, building teams, and creating operational structure. You will also play a pivotal role in sourcing vendors, materials, and equipment.

As the facility grows and operations mature, the role will progressively transition into a more strategic leadership position focused on operational oversight, inventory management, vendor management, team development, process optimization, and long-term growth initiatives.

The ideal candidate is a strong leader with experience in woodworking, manufacturing operations, inventory management, production planning, team development, and continuous improvement initiatives. The Production Manager will foster a culture focused on safety, accountability, efficiency, and operational excellence.

Key Responsibilities

Operations & Production Management

Support the establishment and implementation of operational processes, procedures, and production systems during facility startup and growth phases.
Oversee and coordinate all day-to-day manufacturing operations within the facility.
Develop, monitor, and adjust production schedules to meet customer demands and delivery timelines.
Ensure production targets, quality standards, and operational goals are consistently achieved.
Collaborate with supervisors and cross-functional teams to maintain efficient workflow and production continuity.
Monitor production performance metrics and provide regular reporting to leadership.

Team Leadership & Staffing

Recruit, train, develop, and manage production personnel.
Lead employee performance management, coaching, and disciplinary processes as required.
Oversee workforce scheduling and payroll administration.
Foster a positive, accountable, and solutions-oriented work environment that supports employee engagement and productivity.
Assist in building the operational leadership structure as the facility expands.

Health & Safety

Represent management on the Health and Safety Committee.
Promote and maintain a strong culture of workplace safety and regulatory compliance.
Ensure all employees follow company safety policies, procedures, and best practices.
Participate in safety initiatives, incident investigations, and corrective action planning.

Inventory & Supply Chain Coordination

Manage inventory levels of raw materials and finished goods to support uninterrupted production.
Forecast material, equipment, and supply requirements.
Coordinate sourcing activities and outbound logistics to ensure smooth product flow and timely order fulfillment.
Work closely with suppliers, logistics providers, and internal teams to maintain operational efficiency.

Equipment & Machine Management

Support the sourcing, acquisition, installation, and commissioning of manufacturing equipment and machinery as operations expand.
Coordinate and participate in equipment setup, optimization, and operational integration within the facility.
Monitor equipment performance and work closely with maintenance personnel and external service providers to minimize downtime.
Establish and maintain preventative maintenance schedules and procedures to support equipment reliability, longevity, and production continuity.
Assist in evaluating future equipment needs and identifying opportunities for automation, process improvement, and increased production capacity.

Continuous Improvement & Cost Management

Drive operational efficiency and waste reduction initiatives across all areas of production.
Analyze workflows, equipment performance, and material utilization to identify opportunities for improvement.
Implement process improvements focused on productivity, quality enhancement, and cost reduction.
Review and manage departmental budgets while controlling operational expenses.
Develop strategies to maximize output while maintaining high standards of quality and resource utilization.

What We’re Looking For

Previous experience in a manufacturing leadership role, preferably as a Production Manager or similar position.
Strong understanding of manufacturing operations, production scheduling, and inventory management.
Proven leadership and team management experience.
Excellent problem-solving, organizational, and communication skills.
Knowledge of workplace health and safety regulations and best practices.
Experience with continuous improvement initiatives and operational efficiency programs.
Ability to work in a fast-paced manufacturing environment and manage multiple priorities effectively.
Comfortable rolling up your sleeves on the floor and stepping back into strategic leadership as the business demands.

What We Offer

Competitive compensation package
Opportunities for professional growth and advancement
Collaborative and team-oriented work environment
A chance to build something from the ground up and put your mark on it

Our Hiring Process

Please note: We are actively working toward the launch of our Tennessee facility and are sourcing candidates now for this role. This position is building toward something meaningful and want the right person in place when we're ready to move. If you're excited about the opportunity to get in early and help shape something from the ground up, we'd love to hear from you.

We believe in a transparent process that respects your time. Here's what to expect:

Application -- Apply through Indeed
