Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) (Chief Infrastructure and Governance Lead)
Company: Virginia Transformer Corp
Reports to: Chief Executive Officer
Location: Onsite / Executive presence required
Role Level: Executive Leadership Team
Role Overview
The Chief of Administration at Virginia Transformer Corp is responsible for translating the company's aggressive growth strategy into disciplined, scalable enterprise operations across a complex, multi-plant manufacturing environment.
As a privately held, rapidly growing industrial manufacturer with 5,500+ employees across the U.S., Mexico, and India, the CAO ensures that people operations, corporate infrastructure, compliance, systems, and shared services scale in lockstep with production, engineering, and commercial growth.
This role serves as the operational backbone of the enterprise, providing consistent administrative oversite and risk management, and partnering closely with the CEO, CFO, COO, and CHRO to bring structure, consistency, and execution rigor to a fast-moving organization.
Key Responsibilities (VTC-Tuned)
1. Administrative Policies & Procedures
- Lead enterprise administrative operations supporting multiple manufacturing plants and global offices
- Standardize internal processes, governance frameworks, and operating rhythms across plants and corporate functions
- Drive operational discipline while preserving speed, flexibility, and execution focus
2. Construction, Facilities & Physical Infrastructure
- Oversee facilities management, real estate strategy, leases, utilities, and site services across North America and international locations
- Partner with Operations and Engineering on plant expansions, new site development, and facility modernization
- Ensure facilities and infrastructure scale safely, reliably, and efficiently to support 24/7 manufacturing operations
3. Legal, Risk & Compliance (Manufacturing-Focused)
- Serve as executive liaison with internal and external legal counsel
- Ensure compliance across labor, immigration, safety, environmental, and regulatory frameworks
- Oversee enterprise risk management, audits, and internal controls
- Support contract governance with customers, suppliers, utilities, government entities, and enterprise service vendors
4. MIS – Management Information Systems
- Provide executive oversight of internal IT, enterprise systems, and business platforms
- Ensure systems effectively support manufacturing operations, engineering workflows, HR, and finance
- Drive standardization across ERP, HRIS, ATS, and operational technology platforms
- Partner on cybersecurity, data integrity, system resilience, and infrastructure scalability
Why This Role Matters at VTC
This is not a traditional corporate administration role.
It is an execution-focused leadership role designed for a company that is:
- Growing rapidly
- Operating 24/7 manufacturing environments
- Managing global operational complexity
- Balancing entrepreneurial speed with operational discipline
The CAO ensures that administrative infrastructure enables growth rather than becoming a constraint.
Qualifications & Experience
Education
- Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, Operations Management, Finance, Human Resources, Engineering, or a related discipline required
- This role prioritizes operational and enterprise leadership backgrounds over legal-practice-centric career paths
- Advanced degree preferred (MBA or equivalent executive education)
Professional Experience
- 20+ years of progressive leadership experience in enterprise operations, administration, or shared services within industrial or manufacturing environments
- 10+ years in senior leadership roles (CAO, COO, SVP Operations, or equivalent) with responsibility for multi-site or global organizations
- Proven success translating growth strategy into scalable operating models, governance frameworks, and execution discipline
- Demonstrated experience overseeing administrative functions, compliance, shared services, and enterprise systems at scale
- Experience operating in privately held, high-growth, or complex global manufacturing organizations strongly preferred
