Entry Level Automation Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get an entry level automation manager job?

Focus on building hands-on experience through internships, school projects, or self-directed work with automation tools and platforms. Employers at this level look for candidates who understand process workflows, can demonstrate familiarity with automation software, and show problem-solving ability. A portfolio documenting real projects, even small ones, signals readiness far more effectively than coursework alone.

Which companies hire entry level automation managers?

Companies hiring entry level automation managers right now include Jobot, Color, and Dematic, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. At this level, hiring comes from a broad mix of employers, including manufacturers, logistics companies, and technology firms that are actively building out their automation functions and need junior talent to grow into more senior roles.

Are there remote entry level automation manager jobs?

Yes, though on-site roles are more common at the entry level given the hands-on nature of automation work. About 75% of entry level automation manager openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, so candidates who need location flexibility still have options worth exploring across current listings.

Are these new grad automation manager jobs?

Yes, these listings include new grad, recent graduate, and junior automation manager roles. A posting is new-grad friendly when it welcomes zero to two years of experience, accepts internship or co-op work in place of full-time history, or explicitly invites candidates who can demonstrate skills through a portfolio rather than a long employment record.

Which industries hire the most entry level automation managers?

Entry Level automation manager roles concentrate in Manufacturing, Staffing & Recruiting, and Technology & Software, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors drive hiring at this level because they are actively investing in process automation and need junior managers who can support implementation, monitor systems, and help teams adapt to new automated workflows.
