  • Providing technical leadership, meeting customers and suppliers, balancing technical and commercial needs, and conducting product development reviews.
  • Managing and ensuring LED Technology and associated product developments are delivered to specification, on-time, and on-budget. This includes problem solving, managing departmental KPIs and the running and continuous improvement of our design and prototype manufacturing processes.
  • Working closely with our manufacturing partners to ensure products are designed for cost-effective and efficient volume manufacture. Periodic supplier and customer visits (foreign and domestic) will be required to ensure alignment between design and manufacture is maintained and improved.

  • Experience in full life cycle product development in both B2C and B2B,
  • Well organised with good communication and presentation skills and the capability to develop good people management skills,
  • Able to take on responsibility, work to tight deadlines, and put forward technical solutions.


Why work for us?


At Forge we’re very good at designing, manufacturing, and delivering cutting edge LED solutions in a vast range of industries and markets. But we’re also really good at caring about the environment and our people.

 

We are looking for an enthusiastic Technical Design Manager to join our team, where we have a great working atmosphere with regular social events.

 

You’d be working for an award-winning business focused on innovative design, superior quality, and outstanding service. Our Low-energy LED lighting is making a fundamental positive contribution to the challenge of the Climate Crisis and has applications from domestic, and commercial users, and is being used in industry and into biotech and beyond.
