The focus of this position is to set up a new Production flow for Machining, Polishing, Assembling, Dispatch, and Stores. The production area will involve many small batch projects, so there will be a heavy emphasis on planning, scheduling, and updating production flows to increase productivity and efficiency. The company is growing on average 20% year on year, and they will be looking to implement new machinery and production processes which you will be expected to drive as the Production Manager.

You will be at the forefront of innovation within the company's products and be a pivotal point across various departments.

This is an immediate requirement, so if you have the required skills and experience, please get in touch ASAP with an up-to-date copy of your CV. Either apply directly or contact Jeremy on #removed#.
