About Orwashers
Orwashers Bakery (Orwashers.com) is a New York City institution, founded in 1916 in a small storefront on the Upper East Side. Today, Orwashers continues to be known for its New York classics including rye bread, pumpernickel, bagels, rugelach, black and white cookies and so much more.
In addition to selling bread to many of New York’s top restaurants and gourmet grocery stores, Orwashers currently operates three retail bakeries in Manhattan and Long Island. We also deliver our breads and baked goods throughout Manhattan and distribute to carefully selected partners nationwide. While the company has grown since its humble beginnings over a century ago, the same values remain baked in: handmade classic breads and baked goods made fresh, locally, and with love each day.
What You Will Do
As Plant Manager, you will own all aspects of warehousing, logistics, maintenance, sanitation, production, and frozen cold chain operations across multiple facilities. You will lead a team of department managers, keep the business safe, clean, and inspection-ready, and bring the operational discipline needed to support continued growth. Reporting to the COO, you will be a senior voice on the leadership team, driving process improvements and ensuring the business runs efficiently at scale.
Who You Are
You are a hands-on operations leader with deep experience in food manufacturing or a related CPG environment, comfortable managing multiple facilities and leading through people. You are safety-obsessed, mechanically inclined, and energized by solving problems before they happen. You build buy-in across departments, communicate clearly, and are just as comfortable on the warehouse floor as you are reporting to senior leadership.
