The opportunity

We want a Plant Manager at KyKR who can hold both the spreadsheet and the strategy without dropping either one. Honestly, the draw is the ownership: $94,000 - $147,000 and temporary hours come standard, but the business reins are the real prize.

Key Responsibilities

  • Carry the oddball-friendly idea through the gauntlet of finance, legal, and ops
  • Conduct competitive research and synthesize insights for executive decisions
  • Lead pricing analysis and recommend adjustments that protect margins
  • Pull apart a stalled deal and rebuild the path to yes
  • Design dashboards that track revenue, retention, and unit economics

What You'll Bring

  • Bachelor's degree in a related field, or equivalent practical experience
  • Demonstrated calm when a Grand Junction, CO client changes scope mid-stream
  • Proven track record delivering results as a Plant Manager
  • Experience at the manager level inside a temporary role
  • Comfort being accountable for a service-minded outcome in a temporary role
  • A collaborative mindset and genuine enthusiasm for teamwork
  • A solid foundation in CAM Programming, refined over 6+ years

KyKR is the values-led Grand Junction, CO company that business insiders recommend but rarely the one that advertises. You set the boundaries of your temporary schedule and we respect them without the side-eye.

Beyond $94,000 - $147,000, KyKR invests in your growth, assigns you a mentor, and lets you flex hours across Grand Junction, CO as you need.

We are actively sourcing unfussy professionals for this manager role right now.

Your next $94,000 - $147,000 opportunity is one application away, so why keep it waiting?
