The Role
Picture a Production Manager role where a single well-built model in Adaptability reshapes how Unilever spends its next quarter. A Production Manager seat that takes 7 years of Hydraulics seriously, pays $110,000 - $157,000, and hands over the business reins.
Key Responsibilities
- Optimize the supply chain to balance cost, speed, and reliability
- Mentor junior analysts and elevate the team's analytical rigor
- Write the brief that turns a vague transparent ambition into a scoped project
- Convert a purpose-led hunch into a tested hypothesis the board can weigh
- Trace a complaint pattern back to the process that breeds it
- Author the playbook so the next Production Manager doesn't start from a blank page
What You'll Bring
- A knack for MIG Welding that colleagues quietly come to rely on
- An underdog-spirited attitude and eagerness to learn new skills
- The humility to revise strong opinions when the data argues back
- Detail-oriented approach with a commitment to accuracy
Unilever exists for one stubborn reason: the business tools everyone settled for were never good enough, so we rebuilt them from Chicago, IL. Every voice in the IL office gets airtime, especially the ones still finding their volume.
The salary is $110,000 - $157,000, the mentorship is hands-on, the benefits are real, and the flexibility is the part you will brag about.
The team in Chicago is interviewing on a rolling basis, so early applicants get noticed first.
Don't let an empowering Production Manager opening in Chicago become the one that got away.
