Manufacturing

Globalization, mergers and acquisitions, vertical integrations and partnerships, all demand more of the people at the top

As the manufacturing industry experiences continued growth, companies need internationally experienced leaders to take advantage of the changing global industrial climate.

Industrial companies of all sizes and in all sectors are completely different from just a decade ago. Less formal business-models and flatter, more nimble organizational structures mean that finding the right talent to lead and inspire, has never been more important.

From global automotive manufacturers, through heavy industry and construction, to electronics, manufacturing and industrial services, Odgers Berndtson has an exceptional track record in sourcing leaders for some of the world's top manufacturing companies.

Canada

This is particularly helpful for Canadian manufacturers, who are just starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. After almost a decade of suppressed demand stemming from a high Canadian dollar, thriving overseas manufacturing industry and US recession, Canadian manufacturers can now turn their attention to new growth opportunities.

Odgers Berndtson can help manufacturers turn those opportunities into reality by finding—and leveraging—the right people. Whether you’re looking for forward-thinking managers to run your plant floor efficiently, key leaders to manage your support functions—such as human resources, finance or IT—or high-calibre executives to help your organization expand its global footprint, Odgers Berndtson can help you find leaders that can create shareholder value.
