About the Role:
For a profitable and strategically important manufacturing site in the Bolzano area, we are looking for an experienced Plant Manager to take full operational ownership of the site and strengthen performance, structure, and leadership discipline.
This is a senior on-site role for a strong operations leader who is comfortable stepping into a historically under-managed environment and bringing a more structured, data-driven, KPI-led approach to site leadership.
The business is already profitable, but the group is looking for a leader who can re-establish control, improve performance transparency, and drive stronger accountability across the plant.
The role operates in an international matrix structure, reporting into regional leadership, and requires close cross-functional collaboration across operations and commercial interfaces. Exposure to customer-facing discussions from an operational perspective is considered a plus.
Relocation support can be considered for the right candidate.
Responsibilities:
- Take full operational leadership responsibility for the manufacturing site
- Re-establish structure, control, and accountability across day-to-day plant operations
- Lead the site with a data-driven management style, using KPIs, performance reviews, and operational transparen
