  • Workforce Development Manager

    Management Recruiters of Zionsville

    Development manager job in Coshocton, OH

    My Client is seeking a Workforce Development Manager to lead and sustain a plant-wide training and competency system in a heavy manufacturing, molten-metal environment. This role sits at the intersection of safety, quality, and operational discipline. You'll own how people are trained, qualified, and verified - ensuring work is done safely, correctly, and to spec every time. This is a hands-on, on-site leadership role with broad plant visibility and influence. What You'll Own Training & Competency Systems Build and maintain job-based training matrices, qualification paths, and competency verification across production, maintenance, quality, engineering, and supervision. Define training standards for high-risk and quality-critical work (molten metal, rotating equipment, cranes/forklifts, coatings and lining systems). Establish and track meaningful metrics (time-to-qualification, refresher cadence, cross-training progression, demonstrated proficiency). Ensure training aligns with standard work, process controls, and product/customer specifications (AWWA). Onboarding, Certification & Records Own onboarding for new hires, transfers, and promotions; verify readiness before independent work. Track certifications and re-certifications; escalate gaps to leaders for action. Maintain accurate, audit-ready training records to support OSHA, customer/third-party audits, insurance reviews, and internal assessments. Safety & Quality-Critical Training Embed safety requirements into training (JSAs, LOTO, confined space, PPE, material handling). Partner with EHS, Operations, and Quality to measure effectiveness using incident data, near misses, defects, rework, and process performance. Drive targeted retraining based on risk, change, and performance trends. Trainer Development & Accountability Select and develop qualified hourly and salaried trainers; ensure coverage across shifts. Set clear Train-the-Trainer expectations (technical accuracy, safety leadership, instructional effectiveness, documentation). Coach trainers and supervisors; implement feedback loops and simple measures of trainer effectiveness. Culture, Values & Continuous Improvement Reinforce expected behaviors and values-how work is done matters as much as output. Support supervisors in coaching, recognition, and corrective feedback. Identify skill gaps, support succession planning, and build training plans for new equipment, process changes, and new product introductions. What We're Looking For Required Bachelor's degree in Education, Engineering, Industrial Technology, Safety, or related field OR equivalent manufacturing experience in a molten-metal environment. 5+ years in ductile iron pipe manufacturing or similar heavy/metal manufacturing operations. Experience building job-based training systems, competency verification, and audit-ready records. Ability to influence across levels, coach leaders, and drive consistent execution. Preferred Experience in a unionized manufacturing environment. Familiarity with LMS or digital training tracking tools. Experience supporting AWWA/customer audits and quality management systems. Why This Role Matters This position directly impacts safety performance, product quality, and operational consistency. You won't just manage training - you'll shape how the plant develops people and sustains standards.
