Full-time remote manufacturing operations admins on Eastern Time for Pittsburgh, Lehigh Valley, and Philadelphia manufacturers. Epicor, SAP B1, NetSuite, and MTR workflow fluent. From $1,400 per month.
Why PA Manufacturers Hire Remote Ops Admins
Pennsylvania is one of the most diversified manufacturing states in the US. Western PA still carries the steel and metals legacy, with US Steel, Allegheny Technologies, and dozens of specialty fab shops around Pittsburgh. The Lehigh Valley has grown into a major logistics and light manufacturing corridor (Mack Trucks, B. Braun Medical, Crayola). Central and eastern PA hold food processing, pharma (Merck, Teva), and machinery. The Pennsylvania Manufacturers' Association tracks over 560,000 manufacturing jobs across the state. Back-office admin capacity is a chronic constraint, particularly for 50-to-300-employee shops.
PA manufacturing admin pay per Indeed runs $46,000 to $58,000 per year, or $4,100 to $5,000 loaded. Shift coverage and second-shift backup are pain points. A Teckas ops admin works Eastern Time in your ERP handling PO entry, vendor onboarding, BOM updates, production reports, and MTR (material test report) workflows common to metals and fab shops.
BLS May 2023 median for production planning clerks is $54,640.
