Base pay range

Partnered with a growing manufacturing company based in West Norfolk, I am searching for a Head of Operations on a full-time permanent basis. We are searching for someone who has what it takes to take control of operations and supply chain.

The Head of Operations is responsible for overseeing the day-to-day operations of the manufacturing facility including Production, Supply Chain, Project Management, Procurement, Logistics, and Warehousing. This role ensures that production processes run smoothly, efficiently, and safely, meeting the company's quality standards and production targets.

Key responsibilities:

* Strategic Planning: Develop and implement operational strategies to improve efficiency, productivity, and profitability.
* Process Management: Oversee the entire production process from estimating through to delivery on-site to the customer, ensuring that all elements of operations adhere to quality standards and regulatory requirements.
* Team Leadership: Lead, mentor, and develop a high-performing operations team, fostering a culture of continuous improvement and accountability.
* HR: Manage and support recruitment and performance management of personnel within the operations departments.
* Culture: Lead by example expectations of culture and behaviour and always be a role model for others to follow.
* Resource Management: Manage resources, including personnel, equipment, and materials, to optimise production and reduce costs.
* Performance Monitoring: Establish and monitor key performance indicators (KPIs) to track operational performance and identify areas for improvement.
* Safety and Compliance: Ensure that all operations comply with health, safety, environmental regulations and industry codes of practice and standards.
* Budget Management: Develop and manage the operations budget, ensuring cost-effective operations and adherence to financial targets.
* Stakeholder Collaboration: Work closely with other departments, such as business development, sales, estimating, and finance, to ensure seamless operations and alignment with company goals.
* SLT: Join and support the cadence of meetings including SLT and cascade actions and communications as required. Provide departmental reports for the board pack each month.

This is a great opportunity for an experienced operational and supply chain leader to make a positive impact with the opportunity to grow into an Operations Director role.

On offer is a salary circa £60,000-£70,000 per annum depending on experience, potentially negotiable, plus benefits.
