Manufacturing Operations Manager
2 days ago
A highly successful, award-winning, privately-owned consumer goods manufacturing business with multiple sites in Melbourne, boasting strong relationships with major retailers and large business customers. Despite being well-established, the company has experienced significant growth over the last five years, creating numerous opportunities for role expansion and the need for new positions within the organization.
About the Role
The Technical Operations Lead is responsible for translating business strategy into operational reality, serving as a mix of process/industrial engineering and production supervision. This position oversees a small group of production team leaders in a 24/7 plant with multiple shifts, focusing on ensuring safe and efficient interactions between operators and machinery while maximizing quality using engineering background and CI tools such as lean. The role is part of a development pathway towards an Operations Manager position as a succession plan, seeking an individual with aspirations to run manufacturing operations in the future.
About You
You are an engineer in the manufacturing sector with ambitions to run operations, possessing a solid grasp of continuous improvement tools and frameworks such as lean:
- Engineering degree (process/chemical or mechanical)
- Experience in production-focused engineering roles (process engineer, industrial/production/manufacturing engineer)
- Experience utilizing lean tools (or similar) to improve manufacturing efficiency
- Continuous manufacturing process experience (such as FMCG, packaging, pulp and paper, chemical)
- Supervisory experience would be an advantage (but not a prerequisite)
Why Apply?
This presents an excellent opportunity for an aspirational manufacturing engineer to gain a genuine development plan towards operations leadership, applying engineering skills while developing leadership capability with support from established leaders. The role offers a rare chance for growth, providing a staged path towards people leadership rather than being dropped into a challenging position. The company's size balances the opportunities and investment of a larger organization with the culture and breadth of responsibility that comes with a smaller one.
