Operations Manager

I am delighted to be partnering with an international engineering business in their search for an Operations Manager to join their skilled team. 

This is a fantastic opportunity for an Operations Leader to become part of a friendly organisation that offers excellent benefits, strong support, and ongoing training. The role provides real job satisfaction, with the chance to make a positive impact and see measurable results. It is an exciting and pivotal time to join the business.

Reporting to the Operations Director, the main responsibilities of the Operations Manager will include: 

  • Leading and developing the Operations team, with a strong factory-facing presence.
  • Identifying areas for improvement and driving change.
  • Developing CI culture through the use of Lean Manufacturing tools. 
  • Ensure work is completed on time, within budget, safely and to the required quality standards. 
  • Maintaining compliance with ISO standards.
  • Work collaboratively with other teams across the business. 

The ideal Operations Manager candidate will be an effective and positive communicator, with proven leadership experience within a manufacturing or engineering environment. You should hold a relevant Engineering qualification in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering (or the equivalent experience).

Please apply if you feel your background is suitable. I will respond to every application, and will arrange confidential discussions with shortlisted candidates.
