THE JOB
The Production Manager (Moulding) will be responsible for the manufacture of silicone and polyurethane L&T components produced. The role includes people management, production planning and budgetary/cost reporting.
The purpose of the role is to lead the manufacturing function to meet customer requirements, to meet output targets within budget and have full accountability for ensuring safety, quality, delivery, and cost requirements are met.

The role holder is responsible for developing an enthusiastic, motivated, and flexible team by building working relationships. They will manage the team in line with best practice and establish standard policies and procedures whilst also mentoring and leading the supervisory team to deliver this.
They will work with other departments to integrate new products and help implement and manage continuous improvement and modern manufacturing principals by highlighting deficiencies and recommending changes in training, working practices and processes.
MAIN ACCOUNTABILITIES
The role is responsible for ensuring that all production areas operate in compliance with health, safety, and environmental policies to safeguard staff and visitors. This includes conducting risk assessments of processes and tasks within the department. Maintaining quality standards is also a key accountability, ensuring that all processes align with Production QMS procedures. Collaboration with the Quality and Engineering teams is essential for root cause analysis and problem resolution. Additionally, the role involves identifying necessary skill sets, maintaining skill matrices, and driving continuous training and development.

While we are flexible regarding the candidate's chosen start and end times, ideally, we are looking for someone who can oversee both shifts in full or in part to ensure continuity and consistency across the teams.
Beyond operational responsibilities, fostering a 'can do' culture within the supervisory team is crucial, ensuring motivation and professional development across the workforce. Leading and coaching a high-performing manufacturing team is a key part of the role, along with effective communication with production supervisors and workers. Collaboration with the Assembly Production Manager is required, stepping in to oversee their department when necessary.
Regular reporting on target achievements and necessary actions is expected, alongside working closely with the Operational Management team to share ideas and improve overall performance.
