Production Director
Consortium Professional Recruitment has been retained by this established manufacturer to support the appointment of a Production Director to lead and develop its Blackpool operations.
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced manufacturing leader to take ownership of a sizeable production facility, with the scope to influence performance, develop people and support the continued evolution of the facility.

Key responsibilities include:
Lead manufacturing operations, ensuring production targets are achieved safely, efficiently and consistently.
Develop, coach and support production managers and team leaders, building a positive, accountable and high-performing culture.
Drive continuous improvement across productivity, quality, cost, operational efficiency and equipment utilisation.
Oversee production planning and resource allocation, responding effectively to changing demands and competing operational priorities.
Work collaboratively with engineering, planning and other stakeholders to strengthen performance, resolve challenges and deliver against business expectations.
