Vice President of Operations

We are seeking a dynamic and hands-on Vice President of Operations to lead and transform our global operations.

While this role carries global accountability, the immediate and primary focus will be on our Franklin, MA factory operations.

Position Overview

The Vice President of Operations is responsible for overseeing all aspects of Dynisco's global operations - including supply chain, manufacturing, planning, quality, ESG, and logistics.

The right leader will bring both strategic vision and tactical execution, with a proven ability to build processes and systems where they do not yet exist.

This individual must be equally comfortable operating at the executive leadership level-setting direction, shaping strategy, and influencing across the business-while also engaging directly in the day-to-day details of factory operations.

This position is on-site daily at our Franklin, MA facility (except when traveling for work).

International travel is required, estimated at 3-6 weeks per year, to support our operations in Malaysia, Germany, and other global initiatives.
