We are a family owned and operated steel fabrication, ASME welding and process piping company in Guelph, Ontario, growing to approximately 65 employees.

We are looking for an experienced Operations Manager to take a leadership role in our day-to-day operations and help take the company to its next level of growth.

This is a key management position with significant responsibility for production, people, scheduling, productivity, quality, safety and on-time delivery.

The successful candidate will be a strong manufacturing leader who knows how to organize a busy fabrication operation, develop supervisors and hold teams accountable for results.

Reporting directly to the President, the Operations Manager will oversee the company's manufacturing operations, including:

Material flow
Production scheduling
Health and safety
Steel fabrication
Fitting and assembly
Welding
Production quality
Industrial painting
Shipping and receiving
Shop staffing and shifts

You will work closely with Production & Project Management, Early-stage prep departments, QC and Purchasing to ensure that projects are completed efficiently, profitably and on schedule.

Key Responsibilities

Production & Operations

Take overall responsibility for day-to-day shop operations.
Establish and manage production schedules and priorities for both morning and afternoon shifts.
Ensure projects are completed according to customer delivery commitments.
Identify bottlenecks and take corrective action before they affect delivery.
Balance manpower, equipment and workload across departments.
Develop and implement improved production processes and workflows.

Lead and develop Production Supervisors, Lead Hands and shop personnel.
Establish clear expectations for performance, productivity, quality and attendance.
Assist with recruiting and building a strong workforce.
Address performance issues promptly and professionally.
Build a culture of respect, teamwork and accountability.
Help develop and manage additional personnel as the business grows.

Project Delivery

Work closely with Project Managers to establish realistic production schedules.
Review upcoming workload and ensure adequate manpower and resources.
Communicate potential delays early and develop recovery plans.
Ensure smooth handoff between fabrication, QC, welding, painting and shipping.

Quality & Safety

Maintain high standards of workmanship and quality.
Work with Quality Control to resolve production issues.
Ensure customer specifications and quality requirements are met.
Promote a strong safety culture throughout the organization.
Ensure compliance with applicable Ontario health and safety requirements.

Continuous Improvement

Identify opportunities to improve productivity and profitability.
Reduce downtime, rework, material waste and unnecessary labour.
Improve shop layout, workflow and material handling.
Introduce systems and procedures that allow the company to grow without sacrificing quality or delivery performance.

What We Are Looking For

The successful candidate will have:

7+ years of progressive manufacturing or fabrication experience, with significant supervisory or management responsibility.
Strong knowledge of steel fabrication, welding and shop operations.
Experience managing a workforce of 40+ employees is highly desirable.
Proven experience managing production schedules and multiple projects.
Strong understanding of labour productivity and manufacturing costs.
Experience developing and managing supervisors.
Strong organizational and problem-solving skills.
Excellent communication and leadership abilities.
A practical, hands-on management style.
The ability to make decisions and establish priorities in a fast-paced environment.
Strong computer skills and experience with ERP/MRP or production-management systems is an asset.
Industrial painting/coating experience is an asset.

THE PERSON WE ARE LOOKING FOR

This position is for someone who can lead the operation - not simply supervise it.

You should be comfortable walking into the shop each morning and determining:

What has to get done?

Who is going to do it?

What is holding us up?

What resources do we need?

And are we going to meet our commitments?

The successful candidate will have the credibility and experience to earn the respect of skilled tradespeople while also having the management ability to work with senior leadership.

Additional Compensation May Include

Annual performance bonus of up to 15% of base salary
Comprehensive benefits package family dental, drugs and health spending account
Paid vacation with flexible timing starting a 4 weeks per year
Company-supported professional development

The performance bonus will be tied to measurable company and operational objectives such as:

On-time delivery
Labour productivity
Production efficiency
Quality/rework
Safety performance
Overall company profitability

WHY JOIN US?

This is an opportunity to join a global Canadian manufacturing company where the Operations Manager will have a real impact on the future of the business and building the products which benefit our everyday lives in energy, tech, mining and infrastructure.

The successful candidate will have the authority and support to improve systems, develop people, improve production and help lead the company through its next stage of growth.

If you are an experienced fabrication/manufacturing leader who enjoys solving problems, building teams and getting results, we want to hear from you.
