Our client is conducting a search for a Tool Engineering Manager. In this unique managerial role, you will lead a team of Tooling Engineers responsible for the design, fabrication, and integration of production jigs and fixtures in all production areas. This role will be responsible for managing a team of tooling engineers to ensure the timely and cost-effective delivery of high-quality tooling solutions that support product development, manufacturing processes, and continuous improvement initiatives. This role requires a leader who can make intuitive decisions based on situational influences as needed and who will drive innovation through technology, materials, and processes.

The manager will be responsible for building and leading a team up to 6–8 engineers.] Responsibilities: Your responsibilities will involve the coordination of resources to support tooling requirements at all levels, including the following: • Lead and manage the tooling engineering team, including recruitment, performance management, and professional development. • Oversee the design, development, procurement, and commissioning of tooling for manufacturing processes. • Collaborate with cross-functional teams (Design, Manufacturing, Quality, Supply Chain) to ensure tooling solutions align with product and production requirements. • Drive process improvement initiatives to reduce cycle time, cost, and improve tooling performance and quality. • Manage tooling project timelines, budgets, and deliverables from concept through production readiness. • Evaluate and implement new tooling technologies and materials to improve efficiency and capability. • Ensure compliance with safety, quality, and regulatory standards across all tooling operations. • Troubleshoot and resolve complex tooling issues during development and production. • Foster a teaming environment for knowledge sharing. • Promote a culture where the Tool Engineering team is a heavily relied upon and respected resource. [Strategic responsibilities include defining the tooling strategy and roadmap, deciding what should be designed in-house vs. outsourced, and establishing a management operating system within the first 3 months. Tactical responsibilities include overseeing execution, supporting the team on the floor, and introducing tooling into production through a gated process.]
