Manufacturing Operations Manager

Shakopee, MN | Full-Time | Onsite

Build the Future of Manufacturing at PowerPusher

PowerPusher®, a division of TC Nu-Star Inc., designs and manufactures innovative material handling equipment that improves workplace safety and productivity around the world.

We're looking for a hands-on Operations Manager who knows how to build and scale operations in a growing, smaller-company environment. The right person has experience building teams, processes, and structure from the ground up-not simply stepping into an already established operation.

If you've helped a manufacturing company grow by creating processes, developing people, improving accountability, and building an operation that can scale, we'd like to meet you.

What You'll Do

• Lead daily manufacturing, warehouse, shipping, receiving, and materials operations.
• Oversee purchasing, inventory, and production scheduling to ensure on-time delivery.
• Develop and coach high-performing teams while fostering a culture of accountability and continuous improvement.
• Drive Lean initiatives and operational efficiencies that improve quality, productivity, and customer satisfaction.
• Partner with Engineering, Sales, Finance, Quality, and IT to support business growth.
• Utilize ERP/MRP systems to improve planning, inventory accuracy, and operational performance.

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years of manufacturing operations leadership experience.
• Experience in fabrication, welding, assembly, or engineered-to-order manufacturing preferred.
• Experience building or significantly improving manufacturing operations and processes.
• Strong purchasing, inventory, and supply chain management experience.
• ERP/MRP experience required (NetSuite preferred).
• A hands-on leader who enjoys developing people, solving problems, and driving results.

Why Join PowerPusher?

At PowerPusher, we operate using the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS), where accountability, teamwork, and continuous improvement drive everything we do. We're looking for leaders who take ownership, embrace challenges, and want to make a lasting impact on our business and our people.

Compensation & Benefits

• Salary: $61,838–$120,000 per year (based on experience)
• Medical, Dental & Vision Insurance
• Retirement Plan
• Paid Time Off
• Professional Growth Opportunities
