Meet Jenny Kotulak. Today, Jenny is a lead project manager at Integrity Tool and Mold in Ontario, Canada. She is responsible for gathering the necessary information to initiate and complete programs, coordinating customer interactions and approvals, and managing the financial interface with customers to maintain those relationships.

She participates in both internal and customer design reviews, including part feasibility, steel buy off and completed final tool reviews for approvals. She interacts with engineering for scheduling, identifies variances in tool designs, communicates internal and customer approvals, oversees tool validations, and manages engineering changes and repairs. Jenny’s role also requires an understanding of program costs versus budget, including in-process, at T1 and final ship.  

Overall, her experience includes program management from various industries and customer and project management, and working in fast-paced and slower-paced manufacturing environments. She is passionate about the molding industry, bringing teams together and networking. On top of it all, she is committed to developing and maintaining consistent Integrity standard job timelines.

Integrity Tool and Mold provides design, build, repair and maintenance tooling solutions for global customers. The company is known for its project diversity — small to large scale, simple to complex and a complete range of mold commodities. Integrity is not just the name — it’s a core value of every team member in every department at every Integrity location in Mexico, the United States, Canada and Italy.

Jenny is passionate about the molding industry, bringing teams together and networking.

Jenny earned a business administration marketing advanced diploma and a master’s certification in project management (mcPM). She also completed Dale Carnegie leadership manager training. Past work experience includes RFQ administrator and production control administrator and program manager at Concours Tool and Mold, as well as program manager at Michael Tool. She was recognized as one of MoldMaking Technology’s 30 Under 30 Honorees in 2018.

While serving on the EAB, Jenny is interested in providing input on business issues, culture, shop floor, process, workflow, training, workforce development and global competition. She is also very interested at getting a peek behind the scenes at what it takes to produce a technical article and discreetly sharing her knowledge to help produce quality content for MMT.

When not working, Jenny enjoys the outdoors, and spending time with her family, whether paddle boarding, kayaking or traveling north (yes, more north than Canada) to the family cottage. Currently, she’s attempting to learn how to play golf.
