Why This Role Matters

At AMF, we don't just build equipment, we shape the future of baking. As Workhorse Operations Team Leader , you'll lead mechanical & electrical assembly, final completion, delivery, and installation for a business line that's already doing $25M / year and accelerating fast. You'll be empowered to make bold decisions, drive measurable impact, and cultivate a culture where ideas matter, people grow, and excellence is the standard.

What You'll Do (Key Impact Areas)

You'll own these outcomes. We expect nothing less.

  • Translate strategy into action : align resources, refine processes, and rally your team to deliver revenue, efficiency, quality, and on time performance.
  • Lead from the front : mentor, coach, and inspire your team so every person feels both challenged and supported.
  • Use the Markel Business System (MBS) and AMF's Lean tools to diagnose bottlenecks, set goals, track KPIs, and lead continuous improvement.
  • Be a cross functional connector : you'll partner with Engineering, Project Management, Procurement, and Plant Leadership to ensure seamless execution and feedback loops.
  • Ensure safety, quality, and customer satisfaction are built into every step-through Factory Acceptance Testing, installation oversight, and ongoing product & process refinement.

Who You Are (What Sets You Apart)

We believe AMF is built on the energy of innovators, not bureaucrats. If this sounds like you, we'd love to meet.

  • A bold, strategic leader with solid experience in engineer to order or configure to order operations.
  • Comfortable scaling, changing, and problem solving when the status quo isn't enough.
  • High energy, adaptable, with independent judgment-but someone who collaborates deeply, listens actively, and brings people with you.
  • Data fluent : you use metrics not as afterthoughts, but as tools to see clearly, make decisions, and course correct fast.
  • A communicator who is clear, transparent, and open-someone who builds trust across levels.
  • Deep working knowledge of operational excellence : Lean, change management, continuous improvement.
  • What You Bring (Experience + Qualifications)

    Required :

  • 5 10+ years in operations leadership in a manufacturing environment-especially engineer to order or configure to order .
  • A track record of delivering under pressure : meeting goals for cost, quality, and delivery while scaling operations.
  • Experience using Lean / MBS tools, leading teams and cross functional initiatives.
  • Preferred :

  • Bachelor's degree (Mechanical, Electrical, or Industrial Engineering or related field).
  • Technical savvy : comfortable with ERP systems, dashboards, process automation.
  • Experience in scaling businesses, capital planning, partnering with engineering and customers.
  • What to Prepare for the Interview

    We want to see your thinking , not just your resume. Bring your best.

  • Be prepared to present one or two concrete, strategic ideas for scaling our operation from ~$20M → $100M in revenue : what levers you'd pull, what risks you'd manage, what metrics you'd track.
  • Sketch out a plan (verbal or visual) diagnosing bottlenecks-how you'd structure the team, change processes, move fast while building sustainable systems.
  • Be ready to share your leadership story : how you balance speed vs scalability vs risk, how you coach others, how you build trust and ownership in a team.
  • What You'll Love at AMF

  • A culture where your ideas matter-from day one. We encourage open communication and expect you to challenge, collaborate, and lead. ( AMF Bakery Systems )
  • Accelerated growth & visible impact : you'll see how your work moves the needle.
  • Development support : through programs like AMF Academy, MBS Leadership University, Kaizen & problem solving training. ( AMF Bakery Systems )
  • A values driven organization : integrity, inclusivity, customer focus, and respect for the individual. ( AMF Bakery Systems )
  • A collaborative, global perspective : working with colleagues across functions and geographies-learning and sharing best practices. ( AMF Bakery Systems )
