Plant Manager

Description

Lead with energy. Solve real problems. Build talent. Drive measurable impact.

Revere Plastics Systems is looking for a Plant Manager to help lead our Clyde, Ohio facility and strengthen the daily operating rhythm that keeps our plant safe, focused, and moving forward. This is a high-impact plant leadership role for a hands-on manufacturing leader who thrives on the floor, brings structure to complex problems, uses data to make better decisions, and knows how to energize teams around clear priorities.

At Revere, we believe great operations are built through disciplined problem solving, waste reduction, strong talent, and a systematic approach to execution. Our Plant Manager will help translate strategy into action by reinforcing the Revere Business System, strengthening front-line leadership, and improving performance across our core Key Performance Indicators.

Why This Role Is Different

Clyde is a place where the right leader can quickly create purpose, improve performance, and build a stronger future for the team. You will help shape what great looks like in a KPI & data-driven organization grounded in daily management, disciplined execution, and continuous improvement.

· Visible impact: Improve safety, quality, delivery, productivity, cost, reliability, and front-line leadership effectiveness.

· Real ownership: Help lead the operating cadence of a 24x7 manufacturing environment with 350 team members.

· Business system leadership: Reinforce the Revere Business System through tiered routines, escalation, structured problem solving, and disciplined follow-up.

· Talent-building focus: Coach and develop front-line leaders, strengthen accountability, and model servant leadership.

What You’ll Do

· Lead daily plant execution to meet safety, quality, delivery, productivity, cost, and people goals.

· Serve as the #2 plant leader, providing leadership continuity, escalation support, and operating discipline alongside the General Manager.

· Facilitate daily war room routines, tier meetings, leader standard work, escalation processes, KPI reviews, and disciplined follow-up.

· Use dashboards, trends, Pareto thinking, root cause analysis, and structured problem solving to remove barriers and drive sustainable improvement.

· Strengthen the Revere Business System by creating repeatable daily management routines that connect data, action plans, accountability, and results.

· Develop front-line leaders through coaching, clear expectations, accountability, performance feedback, practical leadership development, and servant leadership.

· Lead by example on the plant floor through visibility, urgency, humility, follow-through, and a willingness to help the team solve real problems.

· Partner with Maintenance, Tooling, Quality, Engineering, Supply Chain, HR, Finance, EHS, and Corporate Operations to align resources and deliver results.

· Build trust on the floor through consistent visibility, active listening, timely action, and clear communication across shifts.

Who Thrives Here

The person who will thrive in this role is energized by challenge, comfortable leading through pressure, and motivated by building capability in others. You bring the 4Es—energy, the ability to energize others, edge, and execution—while leading with humility, accountability, and a servant-leadership mindset.

· Experience working in a formal business system, operating system, or daily management system using KPIs, dashboards, trends, Pareto thinking, escalation routines, and structured problem solving preferred. Ability and desire to build this cadence where it doesn’t currently exist.
