Job description

Testing Manager - Yamaha Marine
Jacksonville, Florida | Waterfront Test & Evaluation Facility
Lead Where Innovation Meets the Water
Yamaha Marine is seeking an exceptional Testing Manager to lead one of the most unique operations in the marine industry. Imagine starting your day overlooking the inlet to the Atlantic and walking the docks of Yamaha's private marina while leading a premier waterfront facility that plays a critical role in developing the next generation of marine technology.
This is far more than a traditional management role. You'll oversee facility operations, lead a talented technical team, manage a fleet of test assets, and support on-water validation activities that directly influence future Yamaha products. It's a rare opportunity to combine leadership, operations, technology, and a passion for boating into one career-defining role.
What you'll be doing:
Lead a World-Class Marine Testing Operation
  • Direct all activities at Yamaha's waterfront testing facility, ensuring safe and efficient execution of testing programs.
  • Plan workloads, allocate resources, and maintain operational readiness to support product development schedules.
  • Manage site assets including boats, trucks, equipment, tools, and facility infrastructure.

Lead and Develop a High-Performing Team
  • Coach, mentor, and develop a team of skilled technicians and marine professionals.
  • Foster a culture of safety, accountability, innovation, and continuous improvement.
  • Drive technical training and career development to build future capability.

Manage a Premier Waterfront Facility
  • Oversee daily operations of Yamaha's marina, offices, and testing grounds.
  • Coordinate contractors, maintenance activities, and facility improvements.
  • Maintain preventive maintenance programs, operational procedures, and emergency response plans.

Drive Operational Excellence
  • Ensure compliance with regulatory, environmental, and corporate requirements.
  • Lead Environmental Health & Safety initiatives and promote a strong safety culture.
  • Manage OPEX and CAPEX budgets, forecasting, annual planning, and internal reporting.
  • Protect facility security, confidentiality, and Yamaha intellectual property.

Represent Yamaha
  • Serve as the face of the facility within Yamaha and the local marine community.
  • Participate in on-water testing activities and real-world product evaluations.
  • Promote Yamaha's reputation for innovation, quality, and performance

Why This Role Stands Out
• Waterfront office and marina environment
• Regular opportunities to get on the water and support testing activities
• Leadership role with significant operational autonomy
• Direct influence on future Yamaha marine products
• Combination of facility management, engineering support, boating, and team leadership
• Opportunity to work with industry-leading marine technology every day
Who Thrives in This Role
We're looking for a leader who is equally comfortable managing a high-performing team, operating a complex waterfront facility, and collaborating with engineers developing the next generation of marine technology. The ideal candidate combines strong business and leadership skills with a passion for boating, innovation, and continuous improvement.
What you need to be successful:
  • A bachelor's degree in Engineering or a related technical field.
  • Proven leadership experience with the ability to inspire, develop, and build high-performing teams.
  • A strong background in facility, operations, or test-site management with responsibility for people, budgets, assets, and day-to-day operations.
  • An understanding of the product development process and what it takes to bring innovative products from concept to reality.
  • Experience within the marine industry is highly valued, along with a genuine passion for boating and life on the water.
  • Knowledge of regulatory requirements, environmental standards, and safety practices that support world-class operations.
  • Strong business and organizational skills, including proficiency with Microsoft Office applications such as Outlook, Excel, PowerPoint, and Word.
  • The ability to build relationships across diverse teams, cultures, and business functions, both domestically and internationally.
  • A confident and adaptable leadership style that thrives in fast-moving environments where priorities can change quickly.

The Ideal Candidate
You are energized by variety, whether reviewing budgets, coordinating testing schedules, walking the docks, meeting with contractors, or heading out on a boat to support a test program. Most importantly, you're excited by the opportunity to lead a unique waterfront operation that helps shape the future of Yamaha Marine.
If you've ever wanted to combine leadership, technology, operations, and boating into one extraordinary career opportunity, this is it!
What's in it for you:
  • 401(k) and Profit Sharing
  • Fertility Benefits
  • 37.5 hour work-week
  • Medical, Dental, Vision
  • Life and AD&D Insurance
  • Wellness Program
  • Short-Term Disability Coverage (for hourly roles)
  • Long-Term Disability
  • Student Debt Repayment Benefits
  • Ability to borrow Yamaha product
