This is a great opportunity for an experienced manufacturing leader to join the business at an exciting stage of its development, with the opportunity to drive continuous improvement, improve productivity and support the business as it continues to evolve.

You will need:

  • A minimum of 2 years' experience at Director level within a manufacturing environment.
  • Strong manufacturing leadership experience, with the ability to lead through experienced managers.
  • Essential experience with CNC machinery.
