About the role

The Facilities and Operations Lead oversees daily activity across warehouse, repair, and facilities functions. Reporting directly to senior leadership, this role guides a small team of managers and staff while ensuring the broader operation runs smoothly.

Responsibilities

  • Serve as the primary contact for facilities management and vendor coordination, maintaining OSHA and company safety compliance through regular safety meetings.
  • Manage daily operations across multiple warehouse sites, including inbound and outbound product flow, dispatch, repair scheduling, and work-order prioritization.
  • Maintain and support managers, warehouse staff, and repair technicians, tracking operational progress and performance measures such as completion times and labor utilization.
  • Oversee inventory control and purchasing, ensuring accuracy, product availability, and consistent process discipline.
  • Work with the executive team to identify operational challenges and improvement opportunities, supporting planning, reporting, and alignment across departments.
  • Oversee the on-site repair function, including hydraulic and electrical control-system repair, ensuring timelines, quality, and team performance are managed effectively without necessarily performing the repair work directly.

Requirements

  • Demonstrated flexibility in managing changing daily priorities, with a proven ability to collaborate across departments and solve problems effectively.
  • High school diploma or GED. Working knowledge of industrial repair processes, including hydraulic and/or electrical control systems, as well as shop workflows sufficient to manage the function.
  • At least 5 years of experience in operations, supervision, or general management within an industrial, manufacturing, warehousing, distribution, repair, or fabrication environment, including coordination across multiple operational functions or sites.
  • Experience using scheduling or work-order systems, along with proficiency in Microsoft Office 365, including Outlook and Excel, and an inventory or ERP platform.
  • Strong leadership skills in hands-on work settings, with an approachable, accountable, and open communication style.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Hands-on experience using the ACCTIVATE ERP system, or a similar inventory ERP platform.
  • Operations experience in the mining or heavy-equipment industry.
  • Proven success improving shop efficiency and operational processes.
  • A background as a mechanic or in equipment repair, paired with management experience.
  • Master's degree in business management or a related equivalent field.
  • Practical ability to assist directly with hydraulic, electrical, or facilities maintenance tasks, considered a plus but not required.
  • At least 7 years of operations management experience.

Benefits

  • Retirement: 401(k) with a 3% company match.
  • Insurance: Full medical, dental, and vision coverage, plus company-paid life insurance.
