Your Mission
To own the operational engine that converts customer demand into delivered revenue — cleanly, profitably, and predictably.

You’ll:

Drive Throughput & Revenue: Ensure manufacturing orders flow seamlessly from quote to dispatch.

Engineer Prevention: Build and enforce preventative systems that catch issues before they hit customers — from quality escapes to late deliveries.

Control Contracts & Performance: Oversee supplier and manufacturing partner contracts, ensuring compliance with commercial, delivery, and quality standards.

Measure What Matters: Track on-time delivery, NCR rate, and yield — and make those metrics visible, accurate, and relentlessly improving.

Lead With Discipline: Build a culture of accountability across every hub — no loose ends, no excuses, no repeat issues.

Collaborate Across Teams: Work hand-in-hand with Sales, Quality, and Product to align capacity, systems, and commercial priorities.

Report With Clarity: Deliver operational performance reports that leadership can trust — transparent, data-backed, and actionable.

You’ll Excel If You Are

Experienced and Battle-Tested: You’ve run operations in manufacturing, supply chain, or commercial delivery — and you’ve seen both success and failure.

Preventative by Nature: You don’t firefight — you build systems that make firefighting unnecessary.

Commercially Grounded: You understand how operational precision drives margin, retention, and growth.

Militant About Standards: You enforce quality and process with calm intensity — not chaos.

Data-Literate and System-Savvy: You use tools (CRM, ERP, dashboards) to inform, not overwhelm.

Operationally Bilingual: You can speak the language of engineers, suppliers, and executives — and make them all align.

Why This Role Matters

Every pound of growth runs through operations.
If we deliver late, or fail quality, we don’t grow.
This role exists to ensure that doesn’t happen.

You’ll have full visibility and influence over how the business scales — building the systems, teams, and habits that turn manufacturing complexity into consistent performance.

This is a leadership position for someone who’s been through the cycle before and is ready to build it right this time.

Experience Required

7–15 years in manufacturing operations, production, or supply chain, ideally within CNC machining, Injection Moulding or contract manufacturing.

Proven track record owning throughput, delivery, and margin performance — not just process or project oversight.

Strong commercial acumen — confident managing contracts, supplier SLAs, and quote-to-cash processes.

Experienced in preventative quality systems (RCA, CAPA, ISO 9001 mindset) and building processes that stop repeat issues.

Comfortable with data and digital tools (ERP, CRM, dashboards) — using metrics to drive action, not just report.

Experience managing distributed suppliers or teams across multiple regions (UK, China, India, EU preferred).

Exceptional cross-functional communicator — able to align Sales, Quality, and Operations on one commercial goal.

Has seen failure and fixed it — understands how to turn operational pain points into system-level prevention.
