Job Description

THE ROLE

We’re working with a stable, long-established industrial manufacturer to find their Assistant General Manager, a unique, growth-focused position supporting the current General Manager with the long-term goal of succession over the next decade (or less).

This is a rare opportunity for a mechanically inclined leader to step into a high-impact role where they can grow into the site leader while staying close to the shop floor.

What We’re Looking For

  • Mechanical background: Millwright (433A), Maintenance Technician, or similar hands-on technical experience
  • Leadership potential: You don’t need a big title, just a strong presence, a collaborative mindset, and a desire to grow into more
  • Problem-solver: You love getting your hands dirty, tinkering, modifying, and figuring things out when manuals or parts don’t exist
  • CAD/PLC experience is a plus, but mechanical ability is more important
  • Must be local to the Mississauga area or within a reasonable daily commute

Why This Role Is Different

  • True succession plan: you’ll work side-by-side with the GM and eventually take the reins
  • Legacy equipment meets custom innovation: no boring days here
  • Stable, family-owned business with global reach and a local, small-company feel
  • Room to grow: both technically and into executive leadership

REQUIREMENTS

  • Proven experience in mechanical and electronic troubleshooting, including expertise in Hydraulics and Pneumatics.
  • Proficiency in PLC programming, CAD software, and Microsoft Office.
  • Excellent communication skills in English, both written and verbal.
  • Experience in a technical role within an industrial setting.
  • A degree or diploma in mechanical engineering or a related field, complemented by relevant professional certifications.
