About Heber Marson
From my first role as a young process engineer to leading multi-site manufacturing operations across Brazil, Argentina, and the United States, my career has been fueled by a simple belief: operational excellence starts with people.Over 25 years in manufacturing leadership, I’ve guided teams through complex challenges—turning safety records around, delivering multi-million-dollar cost reductions, driving decarbonization initiatives, and successfully managing high-impact capital projects. Each step in my journey has reinforced my motivation to build cultures where safety, quality, and innovation aren’t just goals, but shared values.Today, as Plant Manager at NSG Group in Ohio, I’m steering strategic transformations—shaping sustainable operations, expanding into new markets like solar energy, and empowering teams to exceed expectations. My approach blends Lean Manufacturing discipline with genuine mentorship, fostering the kind of collaboration that drives lasting results.I lead with the conviction that success is measured not only in performance metrics, but in the growth of people and the resilience of the systems we build together.
