Job Description

GTA East, ON | Full-Time | Permanent | $90,000 - $120,000 + Benefits

Own the Customer. Own the Program. Own the Outcome.

This is not a project coordinator role.

This is an opportunity to become the central point of leadership for complex manufacturing programs supporting world-class OEM customers across aerospace, defence, robotics, medical devices, transportation, and industrial markets.

You'll sit at the intersection of customers, engineering, production, quality, purchasing, and supply chain — ensuring programs move seamlessly from quote handoff through production, delivery, and long-term account growth.

If you enjoy solving problems, driving accountability, building relationships, and seeing your work move from concept to reality on the shop floor, this role offers the visibility and ownership rarely found in traditional manufacturing environments.

What You'll Be Responsible For

  • Managing strategic customer programs from launch through production and delivery

  • Acting as the primary point of contact for customers and key stakeholders

  • Leading cross-functional execution across Engineering, Production, Quality, Purchasing, and Shipping

  • Monitoring schedules, risks, costs, and overall program performance

  • Driving accountability and ensuring critical issues are resolved quickly

  • Supporting new product introductions, prototype builds, and production launches

  • Leading customer meetings and internal program reviews

  • Identifying opportunities for continuous improvement and operational excellence

What We're Looking For

  • PMP Certification (Required)

  • 5+ years of Program Management experience within a manufacturing environment

  • Strong understanding of production, scheduling, quality systems, and customer-facing operations

  • Ability to manage multiple programs simultaneously without losing sight of the details

  • Advanced Excel and ERP/MRP experience

  • Strong communication, leadership, and problem-solving abilities

Preferred Industry Experience

  • Aerospace

  • Defence

  • CNC Machining

  • Precision Manufacturing

  • Metal Fabrication

  • Automation

  • Robotics

  • Mechanical Assemblies

  • Custom Manufacturing

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Direct exposure to executive leadership and major customer accounts

  • High level of ownership and autonomy

  • Complex, technically challenging manufacturing programs

  • Opportunity to influence business performance and customer success

  • Growing organization with a strong reputation in advanced manufacturing

  • Comprehensive benefits package and long-term career growth

If you're looking for an opportunity where you can make a measurable impact and become a key contributor to both customer success and operational performance, we'd welcome a confidential conversation.
