Assistant Production Manager

Department: Operations and Maintenance

Employment Type: Permanent - Full Time

Location: Cardiff Concrete Plant

Do you fancy a new challenge? Are you looking for support and development as you progress along your career journey? We're excited to advertise for a new role of Assistant Production Manager to join our South Wales RMX team.

We’re looking for a proactive, hands-on person and as Assistant Production Manager, you’ll play a big part in our concrete production within the area, covering our ready-mix concrete sites in the Midlands Area.

You’ll be working 48 hours a week Monday to Friday and occasional Saturday mornings, however we do ask for some flexibility to meet business demand. This role can be based at either our Walsall or Birmingham site with regular travel required to other sites.

You’ll enjoy travelling and learning the different systems at our sites; you’ll provide help and support when we’re busy and work with our Business Manager and Production Manager to keep our sites running smoothly to meet the needs of our local customers.

You won’t mind spending time on the road, moving between our sites to collaborate with a variety of key stakeholders, focusing on building strong relationships. You’ll take the lead in supporting our production teams and oversee quality, material management and supporting our distribution teams. But it’s not all administration, there will be occasions when you will need to operate a RMX batching plant or drive a loading shovel.

You’ll still be getting your hands dirty; working alongside and leading the operational teams to keep everything running smoothly!
