Manufacturing Manager, Gerber
Location: Portland, OR
On-site | Full-time | 5 Days a Week
Reports to: Factory Director
Salary Range: $90,000-$110,000

At Gerber , we don't just manufacture tools-we build reliability, toughness, and trust into every product. That starts on the shop floor with leaders who don't just manage, they do.

We're looking for a Manufacturing Manager who is hands-on, floor-focused, and passionate about mentoring a high-performing production team. This isn't a behind-the-desk leadership role. You'll be out where the action happens-supporting your team, solving problems in real time, and driving performance through example.

What You'll Do:

• Lead day-to-day production operations for steel cutting, grinding, injection molding, and assembly lines to meet KPIs
• Be a visible, on-the-floor presence-actively engaging with team members to keep production on track
• Motivate and mentor a team of supervisors and union employees to meet safety, quality, and output goals
• Identify and resolve production issues quickly and effectively
• Collaborate closely with planning, quality, maintenance, and engineering teams
• Support a culture of safety, accountability, and continuous improvement
• Report directly to the Factory Director with insights, actions, and performance updates

What You Bring:

• 5+ years of hands-on manufacturing experience in a union environment
• Proven leadership experience in a fast-paced production setting
• A doer's mindset-proactive, practical, and ready to jump in wherever needed
• Strong communication and coaching skills-you inspire trust and action
• Solid understanding of safety, lean manufacturing, and quality standards
• Ability to prioritize, problem-solve, and make decisions in real time

Why Gerber?

For over 80 years, Gerber has been a leader in knives, tools, and problem-solving gear made right here in the USA. At our Portland facility, we bring ideas to life with precision and purpose-and we need the right leaders to help us keep pushing forward.
