The Position
We are seeking an experienced, hands‑on General Manager to lead our operation as we develop it into our primary service, manufacturing, inventory, and distribution center.
Our Texas facility is growing into the largest operation in our company. We are looking for someone who has experience leading approximately 15–20 employees in a service center, distribution centre, warehouse, manufacturing operation, equipment business, or similar hands‑on environment.
This is not primarily an administrative position. The General Manager will be the senior on‑site leader responsible for the people, facility, operational standards, and coordination between departments.
We need someone who can walk into an operation, understand what's working and what isn't, establish better systems, develop employees and managers, and then hold the team accountable for maintaining those standards.
What You’ll Lead
The General Manager will have responsibility across four primary areas:
People & Leadership
You will be responsible for building and leading the Texas team, including recruiting, interviewing, hiring, onboarding, training, performance management, employee development, and day‑to‑day accountability.
Department managers will continue to manage their respective functions and employees. The GM will develop those managers, ensure expectations are being enforced, and step in when performance or personnel issues require additional leadership.
Corporate payroll, benefits, HR administration, and confidential employee records remain centralized with our administrative team.
Facility & Operations
You will have overall responsibility for the day‑to‑day operation and condition of the Texas facility.
That includes establishing and maintaining standards for organisation, cleanliness, safety, workflow, storage, equipment, warehouse areas, service area, manufacturing area, and the yard.
We are looking for someone who believes that operational problems should have clear ownership and follow through—not simply become accepted as "the way we've always done it."
Inventory & Distribution
Texas is becoming PDQuipment's primary distribution and inventory centre.
A major initiative for this position will be helping us advance our inventory‑control systems, including implementation of barcode‑based inventory processes .
The GM will help establish disciplined processes around receiving, locations, labeling, stocking, picking, transfers, shipping, cycle counting and inventory accuracy.
Experience with ERP, WMS, barcode, warehouse‑management, or inventory‑control systems is strongly preferred.
Service & Manufacturing Operations
Our Texas location also serves as a major equipment service centre and is becoming our primary manufacturing location.
The GM does not need to be our best mechanic or manufacturing technician. We have technical employees and department leadership for that.
The GM does need to understand how to manage an operation: staffing, production, scheduling, priorities, capacity, accountability, workflow, quality standards, and coordination between departments.
Multi‑Location Leadership
While Texas will be the GM's primary responsibility, PDQuipment operates additional locations across the United States.
The GM will periodically travel to other facilities to help implement operational standards, develop local leadership, improve warehouse and facility processes, and share successful systems developed in Texas.
Expected travel: approximately 6 trips annually.
What We’re Looking For
Strong Candidates Should Have
Previous responsibility for a service centre, distribution centre, warehouse, manufacturing facility, co‑operation equipment, or similar environment
Experience leading approximately 15–20+ employees
Direct experience hiring, developing coaching, and holding employees accountable
Experience managing supervisors or department leads
Strong warehouse, inventory, or distribution knowledge
Experience improving operational processes rather than simply maintaining existing systems
Ability to establish standards and consistently follow through
Comfort working in an industrial environment and spending significant time throughout the facility—not only in an office
Experience with ERP, WMS, inventory‑control, or barcode systems is a strong plus
Multi‑location operational experience is a plus
Ability to travel periodically to other company locations
What Success Looks Like
The person we are looking for should be able to take an operation with significant growth potential and make it increasingly organised, measurable, accountable, and scalable .
Success will form the stronger managers, clear employee accountability, improved inventory accuracy, organised facilities, reliable operating procedures, better coordination between departments, improved throughput and fewer problems requiring intervention from executive leader.
Most importantly, we're looking for someone who takes ownership .
When something isn't working, this person identifies it, determines why, assigns responsibility, implements a solution and performance and ahead the improvement is guaranteed fully good??
Compensation: $65,000.00 - $100,000.00 per year
