  • Maintaining a record of any production service interruptions or restrictions.
  • Contributing to the continuous improvement of team standards, focusing on best practices and efficiency.
  • Ensuring personal development plans are actively maintained and pursued.
  • Providing ad hoc support to the line manager as required.
  • Complying with Health and Safety regulations through safe working practices and Risk Assessments.
  • Adhering to all relevant business processes.
  • Generating and maintaining Business Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and On Time in Full (OTIF) reports on a weekly/monthly basis, demonstrating compliance to relevant auditors as necessary.

  • Proficiency in Excel for reporting purposes.
  • Familiarity with Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software systems, such as Baan.
  • Competence in Microsoft Office applications.
  • Understanding of technical, equipment, and spare parts issues related to production challenges.

Behaviors
