General Manager, precision engineering
Chelmsford
£65,000 plus benefits
Our client is a specialist precision engineering company, serving key blue chip customers in diverse market sectors. They are now looking for an experienced General Manager to run production including machining, CNC mills, lathes, assembly and clean room. The role will involve supporting the local Managing Director and managing the operational side of the business through a period of positive change. This will involve cultural, procedural and operational aspects and will require you to be a relatively strong character to be able to handle this sensitively but swiftly. This is a new role and as such, the new incumbent will need to possess a lean manufacturing background, ideally gained within a specialist precision engineering environment, where you have faced significant challenges and overcome these through a mix of character, people oriented approach and natural motivational style. The essence of this role is to be able to get the best out of production by streamlining the processes and improving throughput, efficiencies, control and discipline. The role would best suit someone who has operated as a General, Plant or Operations Manager and who relishes a challenge. This is an excellent opportunity to make your mark on a successful business with growth plans.
