Job description

You'll join Lionsgate as a Production Manager the same week a real decision is waiting on someone to frame it correctly. A Production Manager seat that takes 8 years of Lean Manufacturing seriously, pays $101,000 - $157,000, and hands over the business reins.

Key Responsibilities

• Streamline operational workflows to reduce cost and improve efficiency
• Write the brief that turns a vague safety-first ambition into a scoped project
• Draft the business case that gets a deeply-bought-in initiative funded past committee
• Carve a client-focused workflow down until it runs without your hands on it
• Manage end-to-end operations for the Joliet, IL region
• Keep the operating model from breaking as Joliet headcount doubles

What You'll Bring

• A nimble bias toward action, balanced by knowing when to wait
• Knowledge of IL-specific regulations relevant to business work
• Comfort with a Lionsgate pace that rarely sits still
• A collaborative mindset and genuine enthusiasm for teamwork

From our Joliet, IL office, Lionsgate ships fiercely-supportive products used by companies large and small. We'd rather coach a fast-growing learner than babysit a brilliant jerk, every single time.

On top of $101,000 - $157,000, we cover your health premiums, fund your certifications, and pair you with a seasoned mentor.
