Who We Are


At TimberHP, we're doing something no one else in North America is doing, manufacturing wood fiber insulation at scale. It's a building material that's been trusted in Europe for decades, and we're the first to bring it to life here at home. That makes this a rare kind of opportunity, the chance to help build an industry, not just join one.


We're growing fast, and growth here isn't an abstract goal on a slide, it's new lines coming online, new team members joining every month, and new problems worth solving. We need leaders who are energized by that kind of momentum.


But as much as we're proud of what we make, we're even prouder of how we work. We're a people-first company. We believe that a safe, engaged, well-supported team is what actually drives great production, not the other way around. If you lead with people first and results follow, you'll feel right at home.

What You'll Be Doing


As our Operations Manager, you'll provide the leadership and strategic oversight that keeps our wood fiber insulation production running safely, efficiently, and consistently, from raw material intake all the way to finished goods.


This isn't a role about managing machines. It's a role about growing people. You'll work through a strong Production Supervisor and exceptional Operations team, and your success will be measured as much by the team you build as by the numbers you hit. If you love coaching, developing talent, and helping people find their footing and then their stride, this is your kind of job.


Your day-to-day might include:

  • Leading with safety first, modeling safe behavior, promoting a culture of continuous safety improvement, and making sure your team does the same
  • Coaching and developing Supervisors and Operations Team Members, creating a culture of continuous learning
  • Partnering cross-functionally with Maintenance, Quality, Building Science, Supply Chain, and EHS to keep production humming
  • Leading Supervisors and their crews in a fast-paced, high-growth manufacturing environment
  • Mentoring effective troubleshooting to improve machine uptime and yield
  • Driving a culture of continuous improvement in safety, uptime, yield, and cost
  • Handling the administrative side of leadership, scheduling, budgeting, and performance management
  • Being a steady, available resource for your team, including some nights, weekends, and on-call support as needed
