Job Description

Production Manager - Custom Cabinetry & Closet Shop Closet Factory Bay Area | Full-time, on-site | Salary + performance bonus Closet Factory Bay Area is the largest custom storage company in the region: Focused in-house woodworking shop that builds every job we install. What you'll own The team. Lead, schedule, coach, and hold accountable a small, experienced crew, including senior craftspeople with decades in the trade. Set clear expectations, run daily huddles, and build a shop where people know what's expected and want to show up. The output. Every job complete, correct, and on time for installation, every day. You'll be measured on on-time completion, rework rate, and first-visit install success. The systems. Build and enforce the processes the shop runs on: production scheduling, material flow, quality checkpoints, maintenance, safety, and cleanliness. Where a process doesn't exist, you create it. Where it exists but isn't followed, you fix that. The numbers. Own shop labor efficiency, material yield, and cost control. Track it, report it weekly, and drive it down. The relationships. Be the shop's voice with Sales, Design, Installation, and Purchasing. Problems get solved across departments, not thrown over the wall. The future. Help the management team plan capacity, equipment, and staffing as we add crews. Who we're looking for 3+ years managing a production team in cabinetry, millwork, closets, furniture, or another wood products shop Hands-on knowledge of cabinet construction, CNC/panel processing, edgebanding, finishing, and assembly — enough to earn the respect of veteran craftsmen and to train newer ones A track record of leveling up a small team: you've built accountability where there wasn't any, and you've done it without losing good people Comfortable with data. You use production reports and KPIs to run the floor, not gut feel Fluent in English and Spanish (required) Strong communicator who works well with peers in other departments and with ownership Experience with production/ERP scheduling software is a plus What we offer Competitive base salary plus a bonus tied to shop performance Health, dental, and vision benefits; 401(k) Paid time off and holidays A direct line to ownership, real decision-making authority, and a growing company where the results of your work are visible on the trucks every morning
