About the role

Italmatch USA Corporation in Smyrna Plant seeks a Production Manager to lead all manufacturing operations, ensuring safe, efficient, and compliant production while driving continuous improvement and employee engagement. You will coordinate with maintenance, quality, planning, and logistics; manage budgets and reporting; and coach supervisors, operators, and technicians to meet product specifications and KPIs.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
