You are a hands-on manager, unafraid to dive into the details, while maintaining a strategic mindset that drives the business forward. The ideal candidate is resourceful, proactive, and able to manage multiple priorities with ease, all while fostering a positive and collaborative workplace culture.

You possess a strong sense of accountability and are dedicated to building a team and infrastructure that can meet and exceed customer expectations every day.

Your Main Responsibilities

As the Director of Operations, you will be at the heart of our operational success, directly managing up to 70 employees across Production, Compounding, and Warehouse teams. This role is ideal for someone who not only excels at managing processes but is also passionate about developing people. You will focus on fostering a culture of growth and collaboration, ensuring that our team feels empowered and supported in their personal and professional development. You'll be responsible for building the infrastructure and procedures necessary to meet daily operational demands, ensuring we exceed customer expectations every step of the way.
•Lead a Team of 70: Oversee a large, diverse team across Production, Compounding, and Warehouse operations, ensuring each team member has the resources, guidance, and support to excel in their roles.
•Focus on People Development: Create and implement development programs to help team members grow in their careers, fostering a culture of continuous learning, engagement, and mentorship.
•Operational Excellence: Establish, improve, and manage operational procedures that allow us to meet customer demands with efficiency, timeliness, and precision.
•Build & Scale Infrastructure: Develop the infrastructure needed to sustain rapid growth, ensuring smooth day-to-day operations and the ability to scale seamlessly as our business evolves.
•Drive Continuous Improvement: Use data-driven insights to refine and improve operational processes, always looking for ways to elevate performance while reducing waste and inefficiency.
•Collaborate & Align: Work closely with cross-functional teams to ensure alignment with company goals, maintaining a strong focus on safety, compliance, and cost-effectiveness.

At Merit Manufacturing, you will be part of something bigger-helping to shape the future of an industry by redefining what brands expect from their manufacturing partner. If you're driven by the challenge of managing complex systems and passionate about personal development, we want to hear from you

Are you Qualified?
•A seasoned manager with a proven track record of leading large teams, developing talent, and driving operational excellence in a high-growth, fast-paced environment.

•Strong experience in managing production, warehousing, and manufacturing processes, with a focus on scaling operations and maintaining high standards.
•Exceptional leadership skills with the ability to inspire, motivate, and guide a team to achieve their best, both personally and professionally.
•A passion for continuous improvement, with the ability to make data-driven decisions that elevate both people and processes.

Education:
