IT Manager | Jenison, MI

Salary Range: $99,000 - $146,000 depending on experience

Are you a dynamic leader with a passion for technology infrastructure and supporting business operations? The Pivot Group is dedicated to building meaningful connections and supporting community growth. We are collaborating with leading companies in Jenison seeking experienced IT Managers to drive results.

The Opportunity

We partner with manufacturers across Jenison seeking IT Managers who want more than a lateral move. These companies hire intentionally, and we connect them with professionals ready for roles that fit.

Key Responsibilities

  • Ensure the reliability, security, and optimal performance of IT and OT systems supporting manufacturing operations.
  • Manage and maintain IT infrastructure, including networks, servers, endpoints, and specialized plant floor technology (e.g., SCADA, MES).
  • Develop and implement cybersecurity strategies to protect proprietary data, intellectual property, and operational technology (OT) environments.
  • Lead the planning, implementation, and support of manufacturing software solutions (e.g., ERP, MES, QMS) and hardware upgrades.
  • Oversee IT vendor relationships and contract negotiations for manufacturing-specific software, hardware, and services.
  • Develop and execute IT disaster recovery and business continuity plans to minimize disruption to production.
  • Drive digital transformation initiatives, including Industry 4.0 and smart factory technologies, to enhance operational efficiency.

Recommended Qualifications

  • Proven experience managing IT operations and infrastructure within a manufacturing environment.
  • Expertise in implementing and managing manufacturing-specific ERP systems (e.g., SAP, Oracle, Infor) and other critical business applications.
  • Strong understanding of operational technology (OT) systems and their integration with IT, alongside robust cybersecurity knowledge for industrial environments.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead complex IT projects, manage budgets, and effectively oversee vendor relationships.
  • Ability to align IT strategy with business goals, drive digital transformation initiatives, and lead a high-performing IT team.

Bonus Qualifications

  • Experience with Operational Technology (OT) systems and IT/OT convergence.
  • Knowledge of Industry 4.0 concepts (e.g., IoT, AI/ML, digital twins in manufacturing).
  • Familiarity with lean manufacturing or Six Sigma methodologies.
  • Understanding of industrial cybersecurity principles and practices.

Job Titles That Should Apply

IT Director, Head of IT, Information Technology Manager, IT Operations Manager, IT Infrastructure Manager, Technology Manager, IT Team Lead
