Automation Manager - Energy
A leader is someone who can get people to do things that they could not otherwise do. They stretch people to make them better, help them achieve their goals, and help them be proud of the work that they do. Our Automation Managers are responsible for the overall success of a group of engineers and programmers and work alongside other managers and project managers to keep Vertech and their teams successful. The product that Vertech sells is the time of its team members so managing and developing those team members is a huge part to our success. If you love to lead and know industrial automation, we have an amazing role for you!
