Description:
What if your next project wasn't improving an existing production line? But being responsible for creating one?
We're supporting an advanced engineering manufacturer preparing to launch a major new programme to industrialise an engineered composite assembly used within the semiconductor industry.
This is an opportunity to lead the journey from development into full-scale manufacturing. You'll play a central role in establishing a new manufacturing cell, developing robust production processes, managing significant CAPEX investment and delivering a rapid production ramp-up to meet customer demand.
Success won't be measured by keeping the project on track alone. You'll be responsible for building the foundations that allow production to scale successfully.
What you'll be doing
* Leading a complex New Product Introduction (NPI) programme from concept through to series production.
* Establishing a new manufacturing cell and supporting production readiness.
* Driving industrialisation activities across engineering, manufacturing, quality and supply chain.
* Managing project plans, budgets, costs, schedules and commercial performance.
* Leading customer programme reviews and acting as the primary customer interface.
* Managing project risk, engineering change and governance throughout the programme.
* Supporting a fast production ramp-up while maintaining quality, cost and delivery targets.
What we're looking for
You'll already have experience delivering complex engineering or manufacturing programmes where technical delivery and commercial performance are equally important.
You'll have experience with:
* NPI
* Industrialisation and production readiness.
* Establishing manufacturing capability or production cells from the ground up.
* CAPEX planning and project cost control.
* Customer-facing programme management.
* Leading cross-functional engineering teams through challenging delivery programmes.
This is an interesting opportunity to shape a manufacturing operation from day one rather than inherit an existing one.
If you've delivered industrialisation programmes, understand what it takes to build manufacturing capability from scratch and enjoy leading technically challenging projects, we'd like to hear from you
