Jobbeschreibung

MAINTENANCE MANAGER | FOOD & DAIRY MANUFACTURING | TEXAS

We are partnering with a growing food manufacturer to identify a Maintenance Manager for a highly invested manufacturing facility in Texas.

This is a newly created position within a plant that has significant growth ahead. The facility operates 24/7, has recently added new production capabilities and is expected to double capacity by the end of 2027.

We aren't looking for someone who manages maintenance from an office.

The team wants a “floor general”—a technically strong, hands-on leader who understands the equipment, can diagnose what's happening on a line and has the leadership and organizational skills to build a highly effective maintenance operation.

What you'll be taking on:

• Lead day-to-day maintenance execution and equipment reliability
• Partner closely with Operations and Quality to minimize downtime and improve plant performance
• Strengthen preventive and predictive maintenance programs
• Support TPM and Autonomous Maintenance implementation
• Work with sophisticated automated packaging technology, including GEA thermoformers and ABB robotics
• Apply strong knowledge of PLCs, sequencing logic and automated equipment troubleshooting
• Improve CMMS utilization, maintenance planning and organizational follow-through
• Provide technical leadership across mechanical, electrical, refrigeration, boiler, hydraulic and utility systems
• Develop maintenance talent and build stronger capabilities throughout the organization

We're particularly interested in leaders who have grown through the technical ranks and bring significant food/dairy manufacturing experience. You'll need the technical credibility to challenge your team and solve problems, but equally important is the ability to lead people, create accountability and build strong partnerships with Operations.

Why consider the location?

The Texas Panhandle offers a different quality of life—affordable housing, short commutes, wide-open spaces and year-round outdoor recreation, along with a strong manufacturing and agricultural community. It's an opportunity to have more space, less congestion and a lower cost of living while building your career within a growing manufacturing operation.

Please note that relocation will be offered, if applicable.
