From metro Atlanta to the Port of Savannah, we place the plant managers, engineers, and operations leaders powering Georgia's automotive, food, and advanced-manufacturing growth.
Georgia has become one of the most important manufacturing destinations in the country. The automotive and EV wave across the state — anchored by major OEM and supplier investments — sits on top of an established base in food and poultry, paper and packaging, flooring around Dalton, and building products. New plants are opening faster than leadership pipelines can fill them.
That creates Georgia's defining hiring challenge: a wave of new-plant startups all competing for the same experienced manufacturing leaders, many of whom have to be recruited from out of state or pulled from the established Southeast base. Startup and ramp experience is at a real premium.
We recruit Georgia as the high-growth market it is — sourcing plant leaders and engineers with genuine startup, ramp, and high-volume experience, screening for relocation commitment, and matching them to metro Atlanta, Savannah, or the smaller manufacturing hubs across the state.
Georgia is a top destination for new plants — automotive, food & poultry, packaging, and building products. We recruit the leaders who run them.
Plant managers, operations directors, and production leaders for Georgia manufacturers, including new-plant startups.
Manufacturing, quality, and design engineers for Georgia's expanding automotive and EV supplier base.
Quality and operations leaders for Georgia's large food, poultry, and beverage processing industry.
Maintenance managers, reliability engineers, and multi-craft technicians who keep Georgia plants running.
Operations and engineering leaders for Georgia's paper, packaging, flooring, and building-products manufacturers.
Presidents, GMs, and VPs of Operations for Georgia manufacturers — discreet, confidential searches.
Georgia manufacturing comp has climbed with the automotive and EV buildout — plant managers commonly $130K–$190K, with new-plant and EV-supplier roles competing aggressively. We benchmark to the specific Georgia market and the premium that startup and ramp experience now commands.
We start with a deep conversation to understand your operation, your culture, and exactly what success looks like for this hire.
We work our national network and run a focused, confidential search for candidates who match the role — not just the resume.

Yes — the automotive and EV supplier buildout is a major part of our Georgia work, and we specifically source leaders with the startup, ramp, and high-volume launch experience those plants need.
Statewide: metro Atlanta, Savannah, Augusta, Columbus, Macon, the north Georgia/Dalton corridor, and beyond. We match to the metro and industry.
For the pace of new plants, often not — many Georgia searches involve drawing experienced operators in from across the Southeast or nationally, and we screen hard for genuine relocation commitment.
Plant managers commonly $130K–$190K, with new-plant and EV-supplier roles at the higher end as companies compete for ramp experience. We benchmark to your specific market.
Most close in 30–60 days; new-plant and specialized roles can take longer. We'll give you a realistic timeline.
Both, depending on how critical and confidential the role is.
