Job Description

Build the Function | Lead the Team | Grow Your Career

This is an opportunity to step into a high-visibility leadership role at a manufacturing site within a global organization. As Maintenance Manager, you’ll have the chance to shape maintenance strategy from the ground up, influence site-wide performance, and grow alongside a company investing in its people, technology, and future.

You will lead the maintenance organization and set the standard for safety, reliability, and continuous improvement. You’ll own how maintenance is done including designing systems, developing talent, and driving results that matter across safety, quality, delivery, cost, and engagement.

Why This Role Is Different:

  • You’ll join the site leadership team, with real influence over processes, priorities, and long-term direction.
  • You’ll build and evolve maintenance systems rather than inherit rigid, outdated ones.
  • You’ll gain exposure to capital projects, automation, and strategic decision-making that support career advancement.
  • You’ll work within a global organization that values continuous improvement, internal mobility, and leadership development.

What You’ll Own:

  • Establish and lead a maintenance strategy that improves equipment reliability and supports uninterrupted production.
  • Partner with operations to plan maintenance activities, outages, and work orders with a strong focus on execution and results.
  • Create, implement, and refine maintenance standards, processes, and KPIs that drive measurable performance gains.
  • Lead continuous improvement efforts.
  • Develop your team through coaching, training, and hands-on leadership; champion structured root-cause problem solving.
  • Collaborate with site leadership on capital planning and lead the installation, startup, and validation of new equipment.
  • Own the maintenance budget and identify cost-saving and efficiency opportunities.
  • Directly manage Maintenance Supervisors and the preventive maintenance function.

What Will Help You Succeed:

  • A bachelor’s degree, equivalent certifications, or hands-on experience.
  • 5+ years in a manufacturing or industrial environment, ideally with automation.
  • 3+ years leading maintenance in a manufacturing setting.
  • Experience rolling out or improving a CMMS system.
  • Practical knowledge of industrial systems such as hydraulics, pneumatics, conveyors, welding, PLCs, and automation.
  • Comfort working with Microsoft Office.
  • A leadership style focused on trust, accountability, coaching, and talent development.
  • Strong understanding of Lean and continuous improvement methods.
  • The ability to think strategically while staying connected to the floor.
