RPS Recruitment have exclusively partnered with NMB UK Ltd to appoint a transformational General Manager for their Lincoln site.
Are you a results-driven leader with deep expertise in aerospace manufacturing and a proven track record in business turnaround? This is your opportunity to take the helm of a £40M operation at a critical inflection point — and lead it back to sustainable profitability.
The Role: General Manager – Lincoln, UK
Base Salary: Competitive + £25,000 bonus + monthly car allowance
NMB UK Ltd, part of the global MinebeaMitsumi Aerospace Group (14 international sites), is a precision engineering manufacturer specialising in high-performance aerospace bearings. Following pandemic-driven disruption and industry-wide supply chain challenges, the Lincoln site is now primed for a turnaround under strong operational leadership.
Key Responsibilities:
* Deliver and enhance a business turnaround strategy to stabilise and grow a site of 260+ staff
* Lead full P&L, budgeting, and CAPEX responsibilities for the site
* Drive lean manufacturing, OEE improvement, and cost control across machining operations
* Ensure compliance with aerospace standards (AS9100, NADCAP) and customer quality requirements
* Rebuild morale and foster engagement after recent leadership transitions
* Champion shop-floor leadership, safety culture, and process improvement
What We’re Looking For:
* Aerospace manufacturing leader with experience in precision machining or complex assemblies
* Strong track record of turnaround success and performance transformation
* Site-level P&L ownership, lean/CI methodologies, and ERP (MAPICS or similar)
* Hands-on leadership style with the ability to rebuild trust and drive accountability
* Commercial acumen and pricing strategy experience
Preferred:
* Degree in Engineering, Manufacturing, or Business; Master’s ideal
* Background in mid-sized manufacturing operations (£30M+ revenue, 150+ staff)
* Experience in global corporate environments, especially Japanese-led structures
This is more than a leadership role — it’s an opportunity to leave a lasting impact on a business with advanced capabilities and untapped potential. If you're motivated by challenge, transformation, and operational excellence, we’d love to hear from you.
