Company Description
MAGNET is a Mission-Driven Manufacturing Consulting Firm that Creates Business Growth and Northeast Ohio Community Impact. Visit our website at www.manufacturingsuccess.org to learn more.
Role Description
MAGNET is expanding its Operational Excellence partner network.
You must live in Greater Cleveland, Ohio.
We are looking to connect with experienced practitioners who know how to help manufacturers and related industrial organizations solve real operational problems.
This is not traditional advisory work.
MAGNET works side by side with clients to implement practical improvements that improve throughput, reduce cost, strengthen quality, improve flow, and build more capable teams.
As a mission-driven, not-for-profit manufacturing and industrial consulting organization, MAGNET works closely with companies across Northeast Ohio to solve practical operational challenges and support measurable improvement.
We are especially interested in connecting with independent consultants, subcontractors, and implementation partners with experience in:
• Lean and continuous improvement implementation
• Process and workflow optimization
• Throughput, capacity, and productivity improvement
• Plant layout and material flow
• Quality systems and structured problem solving
• Inventory, scheduling, and ERP workflow improvement
• Workforce productivity, training, and skills development
The right partners for MAGNET are comfortable in real operating environments, work well with frontline teams and leadership, operate effectively within a structured project environment, and know how to turn improvement ideas into measurable results.
When our partners support client work, they are representing MAGNET in the field. Professionalism, trust, communication, and alignment with our values matter as much as technical capability.
We are heavily focused on the impact of our work. Much of MAGNET’s business comes through follow-on work and long-term client relationships, which means we value partners who help build trust, deliver results, and create lasting client value.
We are building a curated network of trusted delivery partners who can support meaningful, well-structured client work across the region.
If this sounds like the kind of work you do, I would welcome the opportunity to connect.
