Attention: Human Resources Manager,

I am writing to introduce myself to you and your organization in

response to your ad for a Plant Manager. I have enclosed my resume for your

review and I am confident that I can meet / exceed the requirements for

that position. I have managed / supervised multiple plants with multiple

shift operations, simultaneously, in my 35 years in plastic manufacturing

management, operations, processes - development / implementation, training

/ coaching, tooling, equipment / facilities and maintenance.(Experienced in

Plastics Thermoforming - Heavy & Thin Gauges, Profile Extrusion, Rubber

Injection Molding in Automotive, Medical, Consumer and Industrial markets

and managing 24/7 operations with 100+ personnel at multiple sites.) I am a

"hands-on / lead by example" manager who builds organizations on the 3

pillars of a successful manufacturing operation - Safety, Quality and

Productivity. I have been involved in product design, modeling, sampling

and production as well as maintenance of equipment, buildings and tooling.

I have experience in capital equipment recommendation, purchases,

installation, set-up/start-up training and maintenance as well as budget

planning and P/L responsibility. I have renovated buildings and relocated

entire manufacturing divisions. I have experience with plant and

manufacturing layout / flow and set-up and start-up of manufacturing

facilities complete with all pneumatic, hydraulic, electric and lighting

systems required. I have been on start-up and implementation committees for

ISO 9000 and 5S programs. ( At my last job I wrote and implemented all of

the ISO 9000 Equipment Preventative Maintenance Instructions. In my current

position I am implementing a 5S program, training / coaching employees and

implementing equipment and tooling improvements which have resulted in

increased efficiencies to 145% ) I have the experience and ability to

coordinate and interface with various departments. (purchasing,

engineering, manufacturing, maintenance, quality, accounting and shipping /

warehousing) and to set goals / targets and establish Key Performance

Indicators (KPI's) to track / monitor the progress towards those goals. I

have managed / scheduled personnel, equipment, materials, tooling, quality,

maintenance and shipping / warehousing to meet customer requirements and

achieve company goals. I have experience evaluating manufacturing

processes, designing process improvements and implementing the changes

through standard operating procedures (SOP's), equipment modifications and

employee training. I apply continuous improvement techniques without

"reinventing the wheel" and use minimum inventory investment, maximum

customer service and efficient plant operations to reduce waste and

variation (lean mfg) and reach organization objectives. I believe in

teambuilding by cooperation & collaboration throughout the organization and

teach / coach employees to build a stronger, more knowledgeable workforce.

I take a proactive approach to manufacturing, safety and administrative

concerns of the company.

I am currently employed as the Operations Manager for a rubber injection

molding company in northern Ohio. (My primary responsibility is to

restructure and manage the manufacturing division and develop / implement a

process procedure driven environment with a corresponding training system.)

I am looking for a career position such as yours, where I can work and some

day retire. I have managed fast paced, high volume, thin gauge inline

thermoforming up to medium volume, heavy gauge (.400 thick production),

single station and rotary thermoforming equipment. I have also managed a

profile extruder department.(I am familiar with Brown, CAM, AAA, GMP, Lyle

and Sencorp thermoforming machines and Betol and SIMA extruders.) I have

experience with customer service, tooling design and sales. I have

experience in general machining (mills & lathes), sheet metal (shears,

punches & press brakes), welding (mig & stick) and woodworking (power saws,

shapers, routers & sanders) I can use precision measuring equipment

(micrometers, calipers, dial indicators) and read mechanical & electrical

drawings. I have a background in mechanical and electrical environments as

well as experience in work cells and assemblies.(Also fixtures and tooling

to expedite work, improve quality and aid in process efficiency)

With my vast and diverse experience, in plastic thermoforming/vacuum

forming and all associated processes (Including regrind and recycle

processes), I know I could be a positive contributor to your organization.

I look forward to meeting with you to discuss employment possibilities. If

I am given this opportunity, your organization will not be disappointed. I

can be reached at 440-***-**** Cell or *******@*********.***

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Charles N. Peyton
