Production Manager
Skokie, IL Job
Thank you for stopping by to take a look at the Production Manager role I posted here on LinkedIN, I appreciate it.
Allow me to introduce myself a bit. This will not be a typical JD...I am an actual Human writing this. So, no Bots, no AI, no 'zillion gotta haves' in terms of requirements. In addition, I like to add some humor to these things (we all know life is too short to not have a few chuckles here and there...perhaps a whole bunch of chuckles). I have been recruiting talent for over 23 years and been in the tech sector since the 1990s. So, I learned - a long long time ago in a Galaxy far far away - that looking for work is about as fun as a root canal. So, I will try to make this as easy as possible.
As with just about every role I work on, social fit is just about as important as technical fit. So, one might ask....what are these social fit characteristics? Well...I am glad you asked. Here are a few:
I have worked with this client for a while. They are one of those limited drama limited ego type places. So, if you have an ego the size of a planet, I am going to suggest that you run for Congress, because we won't have a fit for this role.
This role is one where we are seeking that individual who truly cares about their people (you will have 6 direct reports and 40 reports to those 6 under your purview). We all know those Production Managers that truly look for and seek out that 'something' that thing that makes you smile. We are seeking that Production Manager that enjoys seeing that 'something' in their associates and - then - helping them grow.
Here is what we are seeking.
This role is being done onsite Monday through Friday in Skokie, Illinois
I can only work with US Citizens or Green Card Holders for this role. If you are an OPT, EAD, H1, F1, or anyone other than a current US Citizen or Green Card Holder, I - unfortunately - will not be able to work with you for this role.
We are seeking a Production Manager with experience in a manufacturing environment. We would need to see fun stuff like LEAN experience, management of staff (this one has 6 direct reports), and a strong EQ. I am a big fan of Tom Peters. In one of his books it said 'we don't hire jerks'....well, thats where that strong EQ comes in handy here. The reason for that 'strong EQ' comment, is that we are looking for that person that can help with creating career growth paths for associates and team members. This particular firm is growing at a fairly steady clip. About 2 1/2 years ago, they had 87 team mates...they now have 115. So, that ability to work in an environment that (while not experiencing exponential growth) is growing at a fairly steady clip.
Here are some of the core responsibilities for this role:
Identify, capture & measure 'touch points' throughout the Operations Department.
Develop time studies to create baselines for goals.
Working with automation of and analyses of processes on the production line. This will include documentation, deployment and evaluation of changes to processes.
Here are some of the main things we are seeking in this role:
At least 5 years of experience in Production Management in a Manufacturing or Distribution environment.
Staff Management of at least 3-4 direct reports (with total team sizes of 10 or more).
LEAN experience from a conceptual level. We don't need a guru when it comes to LEAN, but an understanding of the concepts should do the trick.
Bachelor's degree in Business Administration...an MBA would be fantastic to see.
Office Manager
Orland Park, IL Job
Thank you for stopping by to take a look at the Office Manager role I posted here on LinkedIn, I appreciate it. I realize that its frustrating looking for work these days, so I am going to try and make this as easy and straightforward as possible.
As with just about every role I work on, social fit and technical fit are almost equally as important. For this role, here are things that create a good social fit:
For this role, we are looking for those optimistic people as opposed to those eternal pessimists. I think you know where I am going here. Have you ever visited an organization and it seemed as the people there dreaded what they were doing and looked at you - when you arrived - with that look saying 'so...what do you want...'. That kind of person just wont work well here. We are looking for those optimists...the kinds of people who people genuinely enjoy working with.
There are those kinds of places where people genuinely want to do their best work. We are looking for that person who likes to take ownership and actually wants to do their best work.
Here is what we are seeking in this role:
This role is being onsite Monday through Friday in Orland Park, Illinois
I can only work with US Citizens or Green Card Holders for this role
You will be working on all those things that make an Office Manager into a FANTASTIC Office Manager. You will be something of the foundation of the daily operations of this office. Their are roughly 50 people in this office...so, not too small, but not too huge either. You will blend those key administrative tasks that make an office truly hum, along with facilities management and cross-department coordination.
Here are some of those key responsibilities (I won't bore you to tears with a zillion of these...):
Organize and schedule meetings and appointments and assist with travel arrangements.
Maintain both physical and digital office filing systems to ensure easy document retrieval.
Manage incoming and outgoing communications, including phone calls, emails, mail distribution, reception tasks, bill or invoice processing.
Develops and implements procedures and policies for all administrative activities.
Assist in preparing and monitoring the office budget, tracking expenses, and processing invoices and expense reports including ensuring timely payment of office-related bills and manage petty cash as necessary.
Support HR in onboarding new employees, including setting up workstations and providing necessary training.
Collaborate with HR to update and enforce office policies and procedures.
Work closely with IT to ensure the smooth operation of office technology and equipment.
Monitor overdue customer accounts and initiate follow-up communications to ensure timely payments.
Support external company events in collaboration with the events teams, proactively take care of our guests, offering / ordering lunch, and book transportation if necessary.
Manage daily office operations to ensure a well-functioning environment, with a focus on order management, inter-company electronic correspondence (in other words, monitoring multiple email boxes), and an invoice oversight.
Here are the most important things we are looking for in terms of experience:
At least 5 years of office management / administrative management experience in a professional office environment. It would be fantastic if you worked for a software or IT firm in your past as an office manager or administrative manager.
Experience with Accounts Payables and Accounts Receivables.
