Working under the guidance of the seating department supervisor, you will handle all upholstery tasks within the department. It's essential to maintain a high level of quality in your work and be mindful of the quality standards of your teammates. Given the department's small size, the ideal candidate should be comfortable working closely with others and be adaptable to handle multiple tasks as needed by the business.

Your responsibilities include managing demands through our systems to ensure timely completion of all activities, completing upholstery work for both current and future product lines, and reviewing bills of materials to flag any issues to the supervisor or Engineering. You'll measure and cut materials using both manual and automated tools, operate single and twin sewing machines to sew upholstery, and use your expertise to build or repair upholstered furniture with various hand and power tools.

Additionally, you will assemble and quality check products, support new product development, and consult with internal customers to ensure the final product aligns with client expectations. Training new team members and maintaining a first-time quality rate above 99% are also key. You'll use MRP systems to book off completed works, ensure projects meet deadlines, conduct routine maintenance on tools, and be flexible to work in other areas as needed.

Any other duties required to support the role will also be part of your responsibilities.

This is a permanent job opportunity with the opportunity for progression within a fast moving manufacturing company.
