The mandate

A distressed manufacturing asset needs someone with authority to make hard decisions quickly. You are placed to manage liquidity, stabilize the business, and execute the restructuring — whether that means exiting product lines, renegotiating debt, closing sites, or preparing an asset for sale.

This is not a coaching role. You will make decisions that affect people's jobs, and you will make them on a compressed timeline with incomplete information.

What you'll own

  • Immediate liquidity management and cash conservation
  • 13-week cash flow as the primary operating instrument
  • Lender, creditor, and stakeholder negotiation and communication
  • Product line and customer profitability analysis, and the divestiture or exit decisions that follow
  • Cost structure reduction, including headcount and footprint actions
  • Debt restructuring, forbearance, and amendment negotiation
  • Contingency planning, including 363 sale or Chapter 11 preparation where applicable
  • Board, sponsor, and lender reporting under high scrutiny

What you bring

  • 15+ years of senior operating or financial leadership, with direct turnaround or restructuring accountability
  • Multiple completed distressed engagements — this role is not a first turnaround
  • Deep liquidity management capability under genuine constraint
  • Lender negotiation experience across forbearance, amendment, and refinancing
  • Manufacturing operations literacy — you can evaluate whether a plant should stay open
  • The judgment and steadiness to hold a room that is losing confidence

Strong plus: CTP, CIRA, or equivalent credential; Chapter 11 experience; carve-out or asset sale execution; industrial and manufacturing sector concentration.
