We are seeking an experienced Production & Workshop Manager to design and oversee the fabrication operations within our Neighbourhood Factory in Bristol. This is an exciting moment to join WeCanMake as we gear up for the delivery of our community-led housing programme.
The successful candidate will be responsible for setting up and over-seeing the production processes within our growing Neighbourhood Factory. The focus will be on our home-grown modular housing system, while also helping us build capability to produce components for the retrofit of existing homes and the fit-out of completed homes.
Our work combines traditional woodworking techniques and elements of digital fabrication. A strong background in woodworking is therefore essential for this role.
The role will combine hands-on workshop involvement with production management, requiring someone who is equally comfortable working directly with materials and fabrication processes as they are with planning production, developing systems and coordinating delivery. It also involves working directly with community members in workshop settings, helping to translate technical processes into accessible, safe and meaningful making experiences.
The Production & Workshop Manager is ideal for someone who is adaptable, creative, and keen to grow their experience and role as our Neighbourhood Factory gets established and develops.
