Machine Manager information

What does a machine manager do?

A Machine Manager oversees the operation, maintenance, and performance of machinery within an industrial or manufacturing setting. They are responsible for ensuring machines run efficiently, scheduling regular maintenance, troubleshooting technical issues, and supervising machine operators. Additionally, Machine Managers often monitor production output, enforce safety standards, and work to optimize processes to reduce downtime and improve productivity. Their role is crucial in maintaining smooth operations and meeting production goals.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a machine manager, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Machine Manager, you need a solid background in mechanical engineering, production processes, and equipment maintenance, typically supported by relevant technical training or a degree. Familiarity with manufacturing software (such as ERP/MES systems), maintenance management tools, and safety certifications like OSHA are usually required. Strong leadership, problem-solving, and effective communication skills help a Machine Manager lead teams and coordinate with other departments. These competencies ensure optimal machine performance, reduced downtime, and a safe, efficient production environment.

What are some common challenges faced by a machine manager and how can they be addressed?

Machine Managers often encounter challenges such as equipment downtime, coordinating maintenance schedules, and ensuring optimal productivity from both machines and operators. To address these, proactive maintenance planning, regular training for team members, and clear communication with other departments are essential. Building a strong rapport with maintenance and engineering teams can help quickly resolve technical issues and keep production running smoothly.

Job description

Lead CNC Machinist / CNC Supervisor
Vaughan, ON
Permanent | Days | $40-$45/hr + Bonus

Are you a senior CNC Machinist who enjoys leading by example rather than managing from an office?

We're looking for a Lead CNC Machinist / CNC Supervisor to join a growing precision machining company specializing in complex, custom components for the automation, automotive, oil & gas, and industrial sectors.

This is a hands-on leadership role where you'll spend roughly half your time machining and programming while leading a small team of skilled machinists. If you enjoy problem-solving, organizing workflow, mentoring others, and tackling challenging one-off projects, this could be the perfect fit.

What You'll Be Doing
  • Lead and support a team of 4-5 machinists in a custom job shop
  • Schedule daily work and prioritize jobs to maximize productivity
  • Program new parts from scratch using Mastercam and Hypermill
  • Perform complete machine setups and prove-out new programs
  • Operate and troubleshoot complex 3, 4 and 5-axis CNC machining centres
  • Ensure quality standards are met while maintaining extremely tight tolerances (±0.0005")
  • Support continuous improvement, workflow organization and shop efficiency
  • Work closely with engineering and production to meet customer deadlines
  • Mentor junior machinists and provide technical guidance when required
Equipment You'll Work With
  • DMG 5-Axis Machining Centres
  • Haas CNC Mills
  • CNC Lathe
  • Mastercam (2026)
  • Hypermill
What We're Looking For
  • Several years of CNC machining experience in a custom machining or job shop environment
  • Previous leadership, lead hand or supervisory experience
  • Strong Mastercam programming skills
  • Experience creating programs from scratch
  • Advanced setup experience on multi-axis machining centres
  • Excellent understanding of G-Code, tooling, fixtures and machining strategies
  • Ability to read complex engineering drawings and hold extremely tight tolerances
  • Someone who enjoys leading a team while remaining hands-on in production
Compensation & Benefits
  • $40.00-$45.00 per hour
  • Performance-based bonus program
  • Day Shift: Monday-Friday, 6:00 AM-3:00 PM
  • Overtime available
  • 3 weeks vacation (negotiable to 4 weeks for the right candidate)
  • Annual health benefit allowance available
If you're looking for an opportunity where your machining expertise and leadership skills will directly influence the success of a high-performing precision shop, we'd love to hear from you.
Apply today to learn more.
