58 Scot Forge Safety Manager Jobs Hiring Near You

Lead a team. Shape a plant. Build a career.

At Scot Forge, we manufacture high-performance forged components for some of the most demanding industries in the world. With over 130 years of success, tremendous growth, and 100% employee ownership, we offer more than a job—we offer long-term opportunity.

We’re hiring a Plant Manager to lead our Franklin Park facility, a close-knit operation where leadership is hands-on and impact is immediate.

Why This Role

This is your chance to own a plant’s performance end-to-end—from safety and quality to delivery and profitability—within a company that values collaboration, stability, and results.

Franklin Park is a smaller, high-energy forging environment where relationships matter. You’ll spend your time on the floor, working directly with the team and making real-time decisions that drive outcomes.

What You’ll Own

• Full responsibility for plant operations and P&L
• A culture centered on safety, quality, and accountability
• Consistent performance across production, delivery, and cost

Success means building a disciplined operation that delivers predictable results—not relying on heroics.

What You’ll Do

• Lead and develop your team while building strong engagement
• Drive continuous improvement using data and problem-solving
• Align production with demand in partnership with Sales (SIOP mindset)
• Be present on the floor — removing barriers and making decisions

What We’re Looking For

• ~10+ years in manufacturing, including heavy manufacturing environments
• Proven ability to lead teams and deliver results through others
• Experience with planning, continuous improvement, and operational metrics
• Financial and business acumen (P&L mindset)
• Comfortable working with engineers on technical challenges
• Must be authorized to work anywhere in the U.S. without sponsorship
• Must be able to pass a 90-day head hair drug test today

You don’t need prior Plant Manager experience—this is an ideal next step for a strong operations leader ready for more ownership.

Why Scot Forge

• Employee-owned, stable, and growing
• Industry leader in complex, engineered products
• Strong safety culture recognized nationally
• A place where people build careers, not just resumes
