Production Manager

About Joloda Hydraroll

Joloda Hydraroll design and manufacture materials handling and load transfer systems, used across logistics, food, retail and general haulage. The Anglesey site is one of the company’s UK manufacturing bases.

What used to be a fairly simple product range now runs to thousands of individual parts, feeding a much bigger and more complex production operation. This role exists because of that growth – it’s a brand new position, created to bring professional management structure to the department.

The role

As Production Manager, you’ll lead manufacturing within your department, working through a supervisory team to hit sales orders on schedule and at the right quality level.

You’ll use Factory Master, the site’s ERP system, to track OTIF, efficiency and safety. Success looks like production decisions being made locally, a supervisory structure that runs itself, and measurable gains in output and quality.

You’ll:

• Manage production through your supervisory team to meet schedule and quality targets

• Lead and develop a structured team across each manufacturing cell

• Monitor performance against OTIF, quality, efficiency and safety measures

• Champion H&S standards and enforce safe working practices

• Analyse production data to support decisions and drive improvement

• Investigate and resolve issues that threaten delivery

• Work closely with planning, engineering, quality and purchasing to keep production on track

What you’ll bring

Essential

• Degree educated, or equivalent qualification, in a relevant discipline

• 2+ years’ experience in a professional environment.

• Proficient in Microsoft Office, particularly Excel

Useful, not essential

• Exposure to logistics, supply chain or manufacturing operations

• Experience working with OTIF, performance metrics or reporting

• Knowledge of inventory, planning or supply chain principles

• Experience coordinating across multiple departments or stakeholders

Benefits and culture

Financial: salary matched to experience.

Development: genuine scope to shape your own supervisory structure, full training on Factory Master and site systems, and direct exposure to senior leadership.

Culture: a site building its management layer from scratch as the business scales.
