Job Description

Vice President of Operations
Location: Alvarado, TX (onsite)
Compensation: $225,000 – $250,000 base + bonus

Overview
Imprimis Group / IGXperts is partnering on a confidential search for a Vice President of Operations to lead a complex, multi-site manufacturing division in high-growth mode. This is not a sit-back-and-direct role. This is a hands-on operator who knows how to step into the plants, work alongside leadership, and drive real output. If you’ve built your career rolling up your sleeves and pushing both people and process forward—you’ll fit here.
You’ll work directly with executive leadership and have full visibility across the operation, with a clear mandate to improve efficiency, scale production, and position the business for continued growth.

Responsibilities:
  • Full operational leadership across a multi-site manufacturing environment
  • Direct oversight of:
    • 6 Plant Managers
    • 1 Operations Manager
  • P&L responsibility with a focus on:
    • Driving efficiencies
    • Increasing output
    • Improving margins
  • Cross-functional coordination across:
    • Engineering
    • Project Management
    • Estimation & Production Planning
  • Continuous improvement initiatives across all sites
  • Building, coaching, and holding plant leadership accountable
  • Establishing and driving KPIs that actually move the business

What You’re Walking Into
  • Engineered-to-order manufacturing (not cookie-cutter production)
  • Multi-site operations with complex coordination across facilities
  • A business in growth mode with plans to scale significantly
  • A flat, low-bureaucracy environment where ownership matters
  • A leadership team that expects execution—not theory

Requirements
  • Proven operations leader with multi-site manufacturing experience
  • Strong background in:
    • Welding and/or steel fabrication
    • Engineered-to-order or complex manufacturing environments
  • Track record managing 3+ plants (ideally 5–7 sites)
  • Experience driving:
    • Operational efficiency
    • Process improvement (OpEx / Continuous Improvement)
    • Production output
  • Hands-on leadership style—you don’t manage from a spreadsheet
  • Comfortable stepping into plants, solving problems in real time
  • Strong presence with plant leadership and executive teams

What Sets You Apart
  • You’ve succeeded in mid-sized or less structured environments
  • You don’t rely on large corporate infrastructure to get things done
  • You push teams, challenge the status quo, and raise the bar
  • You understand how to scale operations without breaking them

Location & Travel
  • Based in Alvarado, TX (onsite)
  • Travel: 25–50% across multiple facilities (higher upfront)

Work Environment
  • 24/7 manufacturing operation
  • Occasional off-hours involvement as needed
  • Leadership presence matters—this is not a remote-first role

Why This Role
  • Direct access to executive leadership
  • Ability to make a measurable impact quickly
  • High-growth environment with long-term upside
  • Strong compensation with bonus upside

If you’re looking for a role where you can actually move the needle—and not just talk about it—this is it.
