We look for candidates that offer a fresh perspective and a variety of skills to help us achieve our commitment.
We are currently seeking applications to fill the following job opening at Asahi Kasei Bioprocess where we sell Planova® virus removal filters and develops and manufactures related bioprocess equipment.

Job Description:
The Production and Planning Manager – Bioprocess Systems is responsible for leading and coordinating the assembly and wiring of fluid management process equipment for the biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical market. This role is focused on production leadership, planning, and cross-functional alignment, ensuring systems are delivered safely, on time, at quality, and at cost.
Rather than being a primary “doer” of assembly work, the Production Manager drives execution through the team consisting of welders, assembly technicians, and electrical technicians by establishing clear priorities, aligning resources, and removing barriers. A critical component of this role is maintaining tight integration with Project Management to align production capacity with the project pipeline, proactively manage constraints, and optimize throughput.
The Production Manager collaborates closely with Project Management, Engineering, Quality, and Design to ensure project timelines are achieved while also identifying opportunities to utilize available capacity for building standard products to stock. This role establishes and drives a culture of continuous improvement, safety, accountability, and effective communication across all levels of the organization.
Location: Glenview, IL

Identify gaps in capacity and secure temporary or contract labor as needed
Provide clear, real-time communication on production status, risks, and constraints
Act as the primary operations interface for execution planning and fulfillment alignment
Capacity Management & Inventory Strategy
Continuously assess production capacity and forecast future resource needs based on backlog and pipeline visibility
Communicate when excess capacity exists and proactively recommend building standard systems or subassemblies to stock
Replace hands-on inventory management with system-level planning and coordination to ensure materials support production schedules
Communication & Cross-Functional Leadership
Serve as a key communication bridge between production, Project Management, Engineering, Quality, and Leadership
Effectively communicate with all levels of the organization—from shop floor technicians to executive leadership
Lead daily/weekly production reviews, planning meetings, and escalation discussions
Translate complex and shifting priorities into clear, actionable direction for the team
Team Management, Quality, and Safety
Manage and develop a growing team of skilled technicians and/or leads across multiple disciplines
Establish individual development plans and support skill progression within the team
Drive engagement and ownership through clear connection of daily work to company goals
Ensure accurate and transparent reporting of quality and safety issues
Apply company policies, support performance management processes, and maintain positive employee relations
Support standardization efforts for system builds where applicable
Contribute to operational strategy discussions related to capacity, footprint, in-house vs. sub-contracted capabilities and scalability
Lead or participate in continuous improvement initiatives across Operations
Minimum Requirements
Technical certificate, associate’s degree, or bachelor’s degree
10+ years of experience in manufacturing, equipment assembly, or similar production environments, with strong preference for electro-mechanical integrated systems manufacturing
5+ years of leadership experience with direct team responsibility

Regular exposure to welding, assembly, wiring, and testing activities requiring proper PPE
Hours will be 6am to 3pm, one shift, M-F
Ability to lift 45 lbs as needed
The base compensation range for this role is $100,000-$120,000. Base Compensation is influenced by many factors including, but not limited to: time in the role, previous experience, skills, knowledge, performance, work requirements, internal equity, and business / economic conditions.
