We’re looking for an Industrial Engineering Manager to lead an established function and improve productivity, labour efficiency, capacity and manufacturing flow. This is a hands‑on manufacturing leadership role focused on how products are made and how production performs. It is not a design engineering management position.

What you’ll do as Industrial Engineering Manager- Lead, coach and develop the Industrial Engineering team.
- Use manufacturing data, work measurement and labour standards to identify improvement opportunities.
- Improve factory layouts, material flow, line balance and capacity planning.
- Lead Lean and continuous improvement projects, tracking measures such as productivity, labour utilisation and OEE.
- Support new product introductions, automation and capital investment projects.
- Experience leading industrial or manufacturing engineering teams in a low to medium volume, high mix environment.
- A strong understanding of assembly operations, manufacturing processes and Lean improvement.
- Experience in automotive, drive systems or related mechanical or electromechanical products.
- The ability to turn analysis into practical improvements and engage people across a business.
- Knowledge of manufacturing simulation software or digital factory modelling would be an advantage.
- A dregree level or quivalent in an engine erring or manufacturing discipline
If you enjoy leading people and solving real production challenges, we’d like to hear from you.
Maybe today is the day to make a positive change
