Production Team Leader
Uxbridge | £50,000 – £52,000 | No shifts | Friday lunchtime finish
Love engineering, but get more satisfaction from developing people than being on the tools yourself? This could be a great next move.
We are recruiting for a British aerospace and defence engineering business looking for a people-focused Production Team Leader to lead a team of 20+ highly skilled technicians.
And what they build is pretty impressive. Some of the mechanical mechanisms contain up to 300 individual parts and take six days to complete, with inspection and testing at multiple stages along the way.
But you won't be building them. Your job is to lead the talented people who do.
This is a genuine people management role. You'll manage performance, development, appraisals, training and absence, celebrate the successes and, when needed, be comfortable having the more difficult conversations too.
You'll also have enough engineering and manufacturing knowledge to understand what your team is doing. You'll be working with engineering drawings, production data and KPIs, managing priorities, spotting trends and solving problems when things don't quite go to plan.
The actual role includes allocating work, monitoring performance against KPIs and monitoring productivity.
You could currently be a Production Team Leader, Manufacturing Team Leader, Cell Leader, Assembly Team Leader or Production Supervisor.
What matters is that you've managed skilled people in a manufacturing environment and know how to get the best from them.
Great package and working environment:
- £50,000 – £52,000
- Monday to Friday with no shifts
- Lunchtime finish every Friday
- 9% employer pension contribution, with further company contributions available
- 25 days' holiday + bank holidays
- Option to purchase additional holiday
- Healthcare plan and life assurance
- Personalised training and development
- Retail discounts
- Workplace Nursery Benefit
- Cycle to work scheme
