Corporate Functional Manager, Non-Destructive Testing

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes description. We need to use

for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections that have real specific content. No filler. We need to parse the posting and decide sections. Content includes: - Intro: "Lead NDT Excellence..." etc. Could be "About the role" maybe. - "Why This Role" maybe part of description. - "What You'll Own" could be Responsibilities. - "What You'll Do" also responsibilities. - "What We're Looking For" could be Requirements/Qualifications/Skills. - "Why Scot Forge" maybe Benefits? Actually it's about company. - "Compensation" includes benefits list. - There's no explicit Pay or Schedule details. Thus we can have sections: About the role (intro), Responsibilities (combining What You'll Own and What You'll Do), Requirements (What We're Looking For), Benefits (Compensation benefits), maybe Qualifications (education etc). But we must not duplicate. We need to use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So for responsibilities we can list bullet points. For requirements also bullet list. For benefits also bullet list. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not omit details. We need to include relocation assistance mention. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, etc. Remove those lines. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not put Job ID etc. We must output only HTML fragment. Let's extract details. Intro paragraph: "Lead NDT Excellence. Drive Transformation. Shape the Future. At Scot Forge, we manufacture high-performance forged components for some of the world's most demanding industries. With more than 130 years of success, $600M+ in revenue, and 100% employee ownership, we offer more than a job, we offer the opportunity to make a lasting impact. We're hiring a Corporate Functional Manager, Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) to provide enterprise-wide leadership for NDT operations across our manufacturing facilities. This highly visible role is responsible for developing NDT strategy, driving operational excellence, standardizing best practices, and building organizational capability across the company. The role combines the strategic responsibilities of our Corporate Functional Manager structure with technical oversight of Scot Forge's NDT systems, certifications, personnel, and inspection processes. You'll partner closely with Plant Managers, Quality, Metallurgy, Engineering, Operations, and Maintenance leaders to improve safety, quality, delivery, productivity, and customer satisfaction while ensuring our NDT processes remain technically sound, scalable, and compliant with customer and industry requirements. This role supports operations in Spring Grove, IL, Franklin Park, IL, and Clinton, WI and may be based at any of these locations. Relocation assistance is available for qualified candidates." That's the About the role. "Why This Role" paragraph: "This is a unique opportunity to influence manufacturing performance across an entire enterprise. We're seeking a transformational leader who can elevate NDT operations through standardized processes, technical excellence, disciplined execution, and talent development. Success in this role requires someone who can build alignment across multiple facilities, challenge the status quo, and lead meaningful operational change while maintaining strong credibility on the shop floor. The ideal candidate has experience in heavy manufacturing, preferably within the forging, steel, metals, foundry, aerospace, defense, or other industrial manufacturing sectors, and understands the operational realities of large-scale manufacturing environments." Could be part of About or Responsibilities. We'll keep as part of About maybe. "What You'll Own" bullet list: - Enterprise-wide NDT strategy, standards, performance, and continuous improvement initiatives - Technical oversight of Ultrasonic Testing (UT), Magnetic Particle Testing (MT), and Liquid Penetrant Testing (PT) programs across all facilities - NDT personnel qualification, certification, training, succession planning, and leadership development - Customer, industry, and internal compliance related to NDT processes, procedures, equipment, and records - Capital planning, technology investments, equipment modernization, and process standardization efforts "What You'll Do" bullet list: - Lead NDT operations across multiple facilities, partnering with plant leadership to improve safety, quality, throughput, and overall operational performance - Drive transformational change through standardized inspection processes, operational excellence initiatives, and data-driven continuous improvement - Develop and mentor NDT leaders and technicians through coaching, certification programs, structured training, and succession planning - Collaborate with Quality, Metallurgy, Engineering, and Operations teams to solve complex technical challenges and meet demanding customer requirements - Oversee NDT methods, equipment calibration programs, written practices, audits, and certification systems across all plants - Serve as the enterprise subject matter expert for NDT technologies, customer specifications, industry standards, and inspection best practices "What We're Looking For" bullet list: - 10+ years of NDT, Quality, Metallurgical, or related manufacturing experience, including leadership of technical teams, operations, or multi-site initiatives - Strong preference for experience in heavy manufacturing environments such as forging, steel, metals, foundry, aerospace, defense, or other industrial manufacturing operations - Deep knowledge of Non-Destructive Testing methods, particularly Ultrasonic Testing (UT), Magnetic Particle Testing (MT), and Liquid Penetrant Testing (PT) - ASNT Level III certification strongly preferred; certifications in multiple methods highly desirable - Proven success leading transformational change, continuous improvement, and operational performance initiatives across multiple locations - Strong business acumen with the ability to influence results, develop talent, and build credibility with plant leadership - Bachelor's degree in Metallurgy, Materials Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related field preferred; equivalent experience considered - Must be authorized to work in the U.S. without sponsorship and able to pass a pre-employment drug screening "Why Scot Forge" bullet list: - 100% employee-owned industry leader in forged and engineered metal products - Opportunity to influence NDT operations across three manufacturing facilities - High-visibility leadership role with significant impact on quality performance, customer satisfaction, and future growth - Ability to drive transformational change in a critical manufacturing function - Strong commitment to safety, technical excellence, and employee development - Stable, growing organization with a long-term ownership mindset - Relocation assistance available for qualified candidates "Compensation" paragraph: "We offer a comprehensive benefits package including Medical, Dental, Vision, Hearing, Life Insurance, Disability, 401(k) with company match, Profit Sharing, ESOP, FSA/HSA programs, paid time off, vacation, and paid holidays." We also have EEO etc which we must remove. Thus sections: About the role (intro + Why This Role maybe), Responsibilities (combining What You'll Own and What You'll Do), Requirements (What We're Looking For), Benefits (Compensation benefits), maybe Qualifications (education etc) but we already included education in Requirements. Could also have a Skills section but we have deep knowledge etc in Requirements. We must not create Pay/Schedule unless present. Not present. We must not create filler sections. Thus output:
