Job description

Summary of Position
The Plant Manager leads all day-to-day operations of MOJI Food's Seattle food manufacturing site - a central kitchen/commissary producing items such as dumplings, buns, potstickers, noodles, and fillings. This is a hands-on, working plant-manager role with full accountability for the site: safety, food safety and quality, production output and efficiency, material supply, cost, and people. The Plant Manager directly leads the Production Manager and the Purchasing & Warehouse Manager, and provides functional oversight of quality/food safety, sanitation, and maintenance. Reporting to corporate operations leadership, the role translates company plans and demand into safe, compliant, efficient, and cost-controlled daily production.
Key Responsibilities
  • Site Operations & Production
    • Own the full daily, weekly, and monthly operation of the plant; ensure production schedules are met on time, in full, and to specification.
    • Direct the Production Manager to plan labor, lines, and output against demand forecasts, store orders, and shipment schedules.
    • Balance throughput, yield, labor efficiency, and quality across all lines (dough/wrappers, fillings, forming, cooking/steaming/frying, packaging, freezing/cooling).
    • Resolve daily bottlenecks - staffing gaps, equipment downtime, material shortages - and keep the site running.
    • Lead seasonal, holiday, new-store, and large-order surge planning.
  • Food Safety, Quality & Regulatory Compliance
    • Hold the site accountable for FDA, USDA/FSIS (if applicable), Washington State Department of Agriculture, and local food-safety requirements.
    • Ensure GMP, HACCP, SSOP, allergen control, traceability, and sanitation programs are implemented and audit-ready at all times.
    • Lead the site through regulatory inspections, customer audits, third-party certifications, and mock recalls.
    • Champion a food-safety-first culture; stop production when safety or quality is at risk.
    • Cost, Budget & Financial Performance
    • Own the site operating budget and key cost drivers: labor cost, overtime, material and packaging waste, yield, utilities, and scrap.
    • Track and improve cost-per-unit, labor hours per unit, and waste/rework rates.
    • Partner with Finance on month-end close, variance analysis, and forecasting.
    • Identify and lead cost-reduction and efficiency-improvement projects.
  • People Leadership & Development
    • Lead, coach, and develop the Production Manager and Purchasing & Warehouse Manager, and through them the supervisors, leads, and hourly staff.
    • Build a stable, safe, respectful, and accountable workplace for a multilingual workforce (English /Chinese / Spanish).
    • Partner with HR on hiring, onboarding, scheduling, performance, discipline, retention, and employee relations.
    • Develop bench strength and cross-training so the site is not dependent on any single person.
  • Supply Chain, Materials & Inventory
    • Ensure, through the Purchasing & Warehouse Manager, that materials are sourced, received, stored, and staged so production never stops for lack of material.
    • Oversee inventory accuracy, FIFO/FEFO, cold-chain control, receiving, and finished-goods shipping to stores and the distribution network.
    • Coordinate with corporate purchasing and other state sites on supply, transfers, and standardization.
  • Maintenance, Facility & Safety
    • Ensure preventive maintenance, equipment uptime, and a clean, organized, 5S-standard facility.
    • Enforce OSHA / Washington L& I safety requirements, PPE, LOTO (where applicable), and chemical safety.
    • Lead incident investigation, root-cause analysis, and corrective action; drive down recordable injuries.
  • Reporting & Continuous Improvement
    • Report site performance (safety, food safety, output, quality, cost, delivery, people) to corporate operations leadership.
    • Use data to find trends, set targets, and drive continuous improvement.
    • Support capital planning, capacity expansion, automation, and new-product scale-up.

Qualifications
  • 8+ years of food manufacturing, commissary, or central-kitchen operations experience, with 4+ years in plant/operations management.
  • Direct experience managing USDA-inspected facilities (highly preferred for meat processing)
  • Proven ownership of a production site's safety, quality, output, cost, and people.
  • Strong working knowledge of GMP, HACCP, SSOP, allergen control, sanitation, and food-safety regulations.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage budgets, labor, and operational KPIs.
  • Strong leadership of multilingual, multi-shift teams in a fast-paced environment.
  • Ability to read and act on production, labor, yield, cost, and inventory data.
Preferred Skills
  • Experience in Asian food / dumpling / noodle / frozen / ready-to-eat / bakery production.
  • Bilingual English / Chinese (strongly preferred given the workforce and corporate communication); English / Spanish a plus.
  • Experience with multi-site restaurant or commissary supply, ERP / R365, and new-product launches.
  • HACCP / PCQI / SQF certification; lean or Six Sigma exposure.
  • Bachelor's degree in food science, engineering, supply chain, business, or related field (or equivalent experience).

Physical Requirements / Work Environment
  • On-site role in a food manufacturing environment with cold, hot, wet, and noisy areas.
  • Ability to stand, walk, and move throughout the plant for extended periods; lift up to 25-50 lbs as needed.
  • Ability to wear required PPE (hairnet, gloves, safety shoes, freezer gear).
  • May require early-morning, evening, weekend, or holiday coverage based on production needs.
