The posting

Manufacturing Project Manager | Ashland, Kentucky | Direct Hire | Full Benefits Steel Equipment Service Center | Industrial Environment | 40-60 Active Jobs

Overview

Mural is partnering with a globally backed steel equipment service company to find a Manufacturing Project Manager for their Ashland, Kentucky operation. Our client is a North American service hub for one of the world's top steel equipment manufacturers -- they repair, refurbish, and re-manufacture heavy steel mill components for major steel producers across the country. Their Project Managers are on the shop floor daily, managing 40 to 60 active repair and refurbishment jobs at once for external customers.

This is a direct hire opportunity with full benefits at a stable, globally backed company.

What you will be doing

You will own the full project lifecycle for incoming repair and refurbishment work -- from scoping and procurement through production coordination, schedule management, cost control, and customer delivery.

- Develop project scopes of work and translate customer needs into production work orders

- Identify parts to be procured or refurbished; coordinate purchasing with the Proposal Engineer and Production team

- Monitor job schedules and control costs across 40 to 60 active projects at a time

- Serve as the primary customer contact from job intake through completion -- providing consistent, proactive updates

- Conduct risk assessments and flag potential delays or cost overruns before they happen

- Lead project kick-off meetings and keep Sales and Production aligned throughout

- Interpret engineering drawings and coordinate machining and fabrication activities accordingly

- Write technical reports for customers and internal record keeping

- Maintain organized electronic documentation for every active job

- Domestic and international travel: 10 to 15 percent

The right background

Our client's best Project Managers came up from the manufacturing and trades side -- machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians -- because they understand what the work actually requires. You do not need to have "Project Manager" on your resume to be the right fit. You do need to be comfortable on an active industrial shop floor (steel-toed boots and hard hat are part of the routine), mechanically inclined enough to read drawings and understand machining and fabrication operations, and organized enough to keep dozens of concurrent jobs moving without dropping the ball.

- Manufacturing, trades, or industrial shop experience strongly preferred

- Ability to manage 20 or more concurrent projects without losing track of any of them

- Strong customer communication -- you will be the voice of the company throughout every job

- Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Project or equivalent

- Mechanical aptitude: reading technical drawings, understanding production operations

- Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field preferred but not required -- the right background matters more than the degree

What the client offers

- Direct hire -- no temp period, no conversion

- Medical, dental, and vision coverage

- Life and disability insurance

- 401(k) with employer match

- Paid time off accrual

- Career growth within a global industrial organization

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
