This is an opportunity to lead a sophisticated chemical manufacturing operation, work alongside experienced plant leadership, and position yourself for broader leadership responsibilities in the future.

  • Reports directly to the Plant Manager

What You'll Do

  • Lead daily manufacturing operations with safety as the top priority.
  • Develop and motivate production teams, building accountability and operational discipline.
  • Drive improvements in plant reliability, productivity, efficiency, and cost.
  • Partner with maintenance and engineering to optimize equipment performance.
  • Champion process safety management, including PHA, MOC, and PSSR.
  • Support production planning, operating budgets, and continuous improvement initiatives.

What We're Looking For

  • 10+ years of leadership experience in chemical manufacturing.
  • Chemical Engineering degree preferred; other engineering or chemistry backgrounds considered.
  • Strong experience in continuous chemical processing environments.
  • Solid understanding of process safety, maintenance, and equipment reliability.
  • Demonstrated success leading teams and improving manufacturing performance.
  • Experience in ammonia, fertilizer, petrochemical, or related chemical operations is especially attractive.
  • Leadership potential and the ambition to grow into broader plant management responsibilities.

Why This Opportunity?

  • $200K base salary + 20% target bonus
  • Comprehensive relocation assistance
  • Significant operational responsibility at a complex manufacturing facility
  • Opportunity to contribute to a global company's operational transformation
  • Experienced plant leadership and potential for long-term career advancement

Interested?

If you're an accomplished chemical manufacturing leader ready for greater responsibility and long-term career growth, we'd welcome a confidential conversation.
