Managing Director

Harrison Scott Associates; London; On-site; GBP 200,000 +; Full time

Job description

Outstanding opportunity to join a company that has continually invested in technology to place them at the forefront of the printing world. They have shown innovation and embraced the need to adapt to an ever-changing market.

Responsibilities

Steering the company to the most profitable direction while implementing vision, mission, and long-term goals will require a strategist and a leader. Strategies will ensure the company is constantly moving towards fulfilling objectives both short and long term, and that it does not diverge from strategic guidelines set out by the board.

Forward thinking is at the heart of what this print pioneer does, so exhibiting this personality trait is paramount. You will have shown true innovation in previous senior managerial roles and will continue to do so throughout your tenure, improving processes through the implementation of lean manufacturing methods. These skills will have been honed through a career of working up the ranks in production/operations roles.

Adaptability

It is inevitable that when there are so many variables to consider in an industry like print, everything doesn’t always go to plan. Most of the time you can count on there being some deviation from the original blueprint, so as managing director you must adapt to changes and make quick operational adjustments when required. Solutions to any problems will not always be obvious and straightforward, but you will show you have the capacity to think outside the box to formulate new methodologies – these are the exact qualities our client is looking for to be their next Managing Director.

Requirements

For confidentiality reasons, we can’t give a precise location in this ad; however, we will reveal this information to any candidate whose experience is in line with what our client is looking for. The client will only consider candidates from the print or packaging sectors who have experience in the last 5 years of managing a company with a minimum of 50 staff.
