The Operator
Behind the Numbers

Mark Maginnis Mark Maginnis

I'm an operations executive who builds systems that last — not just fixes that fade. Over two decades, I've led facilities, people, and budgets across food manufacturing and real estate, always with one goal: make the operation stronger than I found it.

From growing OEE by 27 percentage points at Bob Evans to launching CRM infrastructure that boosted lead conversion by 28% at a startup real estate group, I bring financial discipline, analytical rigor, and execution focus to every role.

I'm currently seeking a VP or Director-level role in operations, operational excellence, or continuous improvement where I can drive enterprise-level impact.
