This is a genuinely hands-on leadership role with an established, quality-driven specialist in architectural glazing solutions where your expertise will directly shape processes, drive innovation, and elevate the entire factory team's performance.

As a Production Manager, you'll oversee the entire manufacturing operation, reporting directly to the Operations Manager and taking full ownership of production efficiency, quality, and timelines. This role places you at the heart of the business, where you'll ensure health and safety compliance whilst coordinating multiple projects simultaneously, juggling deadlines, and maintaining seamless communication between site teams, design, and procurement departments. You'll have the opportunity to take a proactive approach to machinery maintenance, handle employee matters with a mentoring mindset, and navigate supply chain challenges that affect smooth operations.

This Production Manager position rewards those who can blend technical expertise with strong leadership, bringing discipline and flexibility to meet tight deadlines whilst inspiring their team to deliver exceptional results.

The successful Production Manager will bring substantial experience managing manufacturing teams within architectural glazing environments, with deep working knowledge of Schuco and Kawneer systems. You'll be proficient with Schucal and KawneerPro, highly experienced in programming CNC machines, and possess an excellent understanding of cutting sheets for fabrication. Your people management skills will be outstanding - you'll know how to influence, mentor, and bring out the best in your team. Strong communication abilities, problem-solving instincts, and analytical thinking will help you thrive in this hands-on Production Manager role.

Here's what my client offers in return:
  • A highly competitive salary package that reflects the importance of this role
  • 33 days holiday including bank holidays
  • Company pension contribution and colleague assistance portal
  • Mobile phone and clothing provided
