Production Manager
Elevation Recruitment Group are excited to be exclusively partnered with a well established, privately owned engineering manufacturer in Barnsley, who are looking to appoint a Production Manager to take ownership of output, people and performance across their manufacturing site.
The business designs and builds capital equipment for an international customer base and has grown steadily over a number of years. This site feeds the group's final assembly operation, so the Production Manager plays a direct part in keeping the wider business moving, planning daily output against Kanban targets and changing demand, and reviewing capacity monthly as volumes shift.
This is a hands on leadership role with real scope to change things. The business wants a Production Manager who will challenge a "how we've always done it" culture, drive throughput through Lean and single piece flow, and develop Section Managers and Team Leaders so improvement sticks once it's in place.
Benefits:
- Business performance bonus
- 25 days holiday plus bank holidays, increasing with service
- 5% contributory pension, healthcare scheme and death in service cover
Working Hours: 40 hours per week, 7.30am to 4.30pm Monday to Thursday, 7.30am to 1.30pm Friday
Salary: £57,345 guaranteed basic plus overtime and bonus
