About Us

Signs By G is one of the fastest-growing signage companies in Texas — producing high-quality commercial signage for retail centers, franchises, developers, and construction partners statewide.

We are known for precision, speed, and delivering on our word.

We don’t do sloppy.

We don’t do late.

We don’t do excuses.

But here’s the difference

We work hard, but we play hard too.

We reward big output, we celebrate wins, and we maintain a fun, easy-going environment even though the shop moves fast and expectations are high.

Our team culture values grit, ownership, trust, and excellence — without the ego.

About the Role

We are seeking a Production Manager with signage manufacturing experience only — someone who has run a sign shop, understands the workflow, and knows how to keep production moving efficiently, cleanly, and on schedule.

This role oversees the entire shop: routing, printing, vinyl, channel letters, wiring, fabrication, and installation prep.

You will ensure all jobs move from department to department with speed, clarity, and accountability — and that the team stays aligned and productive every day.

This is not an entry-level position.

This is a role for an experienced leader who knows the sign industry inside and out.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and manage the entire production floor
• Oversee daily workflow and ensure jobs hit deadlines every time
• Coordinate between PMs, designers, production teams, and installation
• Identify bottlenecks early and eliminate them before they become delays
• Maintain high-quality standards and compliance with code requirements
• Manage materials, inventory, and vendor communication
• Enforce safety, organization, and shop efficiency
• Hold team members accountable for speed, quality, and craftsmanship
• Oversee labor hours and production cost control
• Train, develop, and mentor production staff
• Maintain a positive, fun, high-energy culture even during heavy workloads

Requirements (Non-Negotiable)

• Minimum 3 years of management experience in signage manufacturing
• Extensive knowledge of: channel letters, UL wiring, ACM, acrylic, LED modules, cabinet fabrication, vinyl application, routing
• Strong leadership presence and ability to command a shop
• Willing and able to run 10–12 hour days in a fast-paced production environment
• High accountability: deadlines and quality standards are non-negotiable
• Excellent communication and coordination skills
• Ability to read drawings, shop plans, and technical specifications
• Problem-solver who can make fast decisions without hand-holding

What We Offer

• $80,000–$90,000 salary, depending on signage industry experience
• Stable full-time leadership role
• Strong support from ownership and PM team
• High reward culture — big output gets big recognition
• Fun, fast, high-performance environment
• Opportunity to shape, lead, and scale a best-in-class production department

Who This Role Is For

• Someone who’s lived and breathed sign manufacturing
• A leader who thrives in fast environments
• A person who takes pride in running a tight, efficient shop
• Someone who wants to be respected, rewarded, and trusted
• A driver, a doer, and a builder — not a babysitter
