Build More Than an Operation. Build a Company.

DSA Doors is one of the fastest-growing independent distributors and manufacturers of premium wood door systems in the eastern United States.

We serve more than 1,000 dealers across the Midwest and East Coast while continuing to expand our manufacturing capabilities and operational excellence.

We are seeking an exceptional operations leader who wants to build something meaningful—not simply manage an existing operation.

  • Warehouse & Logistics
  • Maintenance
  • Continuous Improvement
  • Safety

Your objective is to build a high-performing operations organization capable of supporting DSA's next stage of growth.

Executive Growth Opportunity

We believe in developing leaders from within.

The successful candidate will participate in an 18-month Executive Development Program with the opportunity to earn promotion to Vice President of Operations based on demonstrated performance, leadership, and strategic contribution.

Promotion is based on results—not tenure.
