Lead Technology, Automation & AI Strategy for a Growing Manufacturing Company

Are you passionate about using technology, automation, data, and AI to solve business challenges and drive results?

L&M Corrugated is seeking a Business Systems & Automation Manager to lead the evolution of our business systems, technology initiatives, automation projects, reporting capabilities, and AI strategy.

This is not a traditional IT support role. Instead, you'll work directly with company leadership and cross-functional teams to identify opportunities, implement solutions, improve processes, and help shape the future of how our business operates.

If you enjoy turning ideas into results, leading projects, and leveraging technology to create meaningful business impact, we'd love to hear from you.

What You'll Do
As the Business Systems & Automation Manager, you'll serve as the bridge between business operations and technology, helping drive efficiency, visibility, scalability, and continuous improvement throughout the organization.

Key responsibilities include:
  • Leading business systems, automation, reporting, and AI initiatives
  • Identifying opportunities to improve workflows, reduce manual work, and increase operational efficiency
  • Managing technology projects from concept through implementation, adoption, and measurement
  • Collaborating with leadership and department teams to translate business needs into practical solutions
  • Evaluating and implementing software, systems, integrations, automation tools, and AI technologies
  • Driving improvements in reporting, dashboards, data visibility, and system utilization
  • Managing technology vendors and ensuring projects are delivered on time and on budget
  • Partnering with our outsourced IT provider to maintain secure and reliable business systems
  • Supporting change management, training, and user adoption efforts

What We're Looking For
  • 5+ years of experience in business systems, technology project management, systems implementation, digital transformation, business analysis, operations technology, or a related field
  • Strong project leadership and problem-solving skills
  • Experience leading cross-functional initiatives and driving measurable business results
  • Ability to translate business challenges into practical technology solutions
  • Working knowledge of business systems, data management, reporting, integrations, cloud platforms, and cybersecurity fundamentals
  • Experience evaluating and managing technology vendors and external partners
  • Exposure to AI tools, workflow automation, low-code/no-code platforms, or agent-based technologies
  • Manufacturing, packaging, distribution, or business-to-business industry experience is a plus
  • Bachelor's degree in Information Systems, Business, Technology, Engineering, Operations, or a related field preferred

Make an Impact
At L&M Corrugated, we're investing in the future of our business through technology, automation, and AI. This role offers the opportunity to influence company-wide processes, lead meaningful initiatives, and help shape the next chapter of our growth.

If you're excited about solving business challenges through technology and want to make a visible impact in a growing organization, we'd love to hear from you.

Apply today and help drive the future of L&M Corrugated.
