What I'm seeing this week
We're running two confidential General Manager searches right now for sister companies — full P&L roles, both reporting straight to the parent company's CEO, both paying well into six figures. If you know someone who's actually run a shop's numbers (not just supervised one), take a look:
General Manager — Swiss-Style CNC Machining (near Lowell, MA) — medical, semiconductor & aerospace customers, $175K–$190K
General Manager — CNC Machining (Denver, NC) — aerospace, defense & space customers, $165K–$175K
