IN DEMAND Recruitment & Consulting Inc. is currently looking to hire an OPERATIONS MANAGER for our client in Kitchener, ON.

We’re looking for a dynamic operations leader to take full ownership of a high-volume materials recovery facility (MRF). This role is at the heart of environmental performance and operational excellence—driving efficiency, safety, and continuous improvement in a fast-paced, industrial setting.

If you’re someone who thrives on optimizing complex operations, leading teams, and delivering measurable results, this is an opportunity to make a tangible difference every day.

Oversee daily site operations including inbound/outbound logistics, sorting, and processing activities
Drive efficiency by reducing handling costs and improving throughput
Continuously improve turnaround times for inbound and outbound vehicles
Identify and implement process improvements to enhance productivity and reliability

Safety & Compliance

Champion a culture of safety, ensuring adherence to all regulatory and operational standards
Lead safety initiatives, meetings, and training to maintain a zero-incident mindset

Financial & Performance Management

Manage site-level budgets and monitor performance against forecasts and historical data
Identify cost-saving opportunities while maintaining operational integrity

Leadership & Team Development

Build, coach, and lead a strong operations team
Oversee hiring, training, performance management, and succession planning
Foster a collaborative, accountable, and results-driven work environment

Facility & Stakeholder Management

Ensure facility cleanliness, maintenance, and operational readiness through inspections and preventive programs
Serve as a key point of contact for community and external stakeholders when needed
Deliver clear, timely reporting and operational updates

What We’re Looking For:

Experience & Education

Bachelor’s degree or equivalent combination of education and experience
7+ years of experience in operations, manufacturing, logistics, or industrial environments
Proven leadership experience managing teams in a fast-paced setting

Core Strengths

Strong operational and financial acumen
Continuous improvement mindset (Lean/efficiency-driven thinking is a plus)
Ability to lead through change and drive accountability
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills

Work Environment

Combination of office and active industrial facility environment
Hands-on leadership presence on the floor is essential

Compensation

Base salary range: $93, – $,
Performance-based bonus eligibility
Final offer will reflect experience, skills, and location

Why This Role Stands Out

High visibility leadership role with full operational ownership
Opportunity to drive meaningful environmental and business impact
Autonomy to shape processes, culture, and performance
