My client, a specialist in the design and manufacture of advanced composite structures, based in Chippenham, are currently looking for a Technical Manufacturing Project Manager to join their growing team on a permanent basis.
This is an exciting opportunity to join a young, dynamic, and forward-thinking company where you will be more than just an employee, but an integral part of an ambitious future. The company also runs a 9-day working fortnight, offering a 3 day weekend every other week!
The successful candidate will work on a number of large projects from a prototyping environment through to series production, and will co-ordinate all key business functions and own the delivery in line with customer requirements.
You will act as the primary contact for the customer, and ensure that the project requirements are understood and translated accordingly.
You will need to have a solid grounding in an Engineering or Technical discipline, ideally in a Project Engineering capacity, be commercially astute and should contribute significantly to solutions to problems, rather than just managing project plans.
