Job Description
Are you a hands-on operations leader ready to make a real impact? We’re looking for an experienced Head of Operations to drive production, supply chain, and site operations at a growing, international manufacturing business.
About the Company
With decades of heritage and a strong global presence, this SME is a trusted manufacturer and distributor of innovative consumer maintenance products. Supplying leading retailers and trade distributors across more than 50 countries, the business is built on a reputation for quality, value, and reliability. It’s a fast-paced, supportive environment where you’ll have the chance to shape operations, deliver improvements, and make your mark.
The Role
Reporting directly to the Managing Director, you’ll take ownership of day-to-day operations while leading improvements in efficiency, quality, and output. This role is a balance of strategic oversight and hands-on involvement—ideal for someone who enjoys being on the factory floor as much as in the boardroom.
Key responsibilities include:
* Leading production, warehouse, and supply chain activities.
* Overseeing daily manufacturing, ensuring products are delivered on time and to the highest standards.
* Driving continuous improvement across efficiency, quality, and compliance.
* Managing supplier relationships, stock control, and logistics.
* Coaching and developing a multi-skilled team, fostering a positive workplace culture.
* Supporting business growth through KPI development, cost control, and system improvements.
What We’re Looking For
* Proven experience in operations or production management within SME manufacturing.
* A hands-on leader who can roll up their sleeves to solve problems.
* Strong understanding of manufacturing processes (bottle filling, chemicals, hand packing, or consumables experience a plus).
* Supply chain and inventory management expertise.
* Excellent leadership, organisational, and problem-solving skills.
* Knowledge of health & safety, quality, and compliance requirements.
* Experience with lean/continuous improvement methodologies (desirable).
What’s on Offer
* Competitive salary (DOE).
* A varied, hands-on role with real responsibility and visibility.
* Opportunity to shape operations in a growing international SME.
* Supportive and friendly team culture with scope for personal growth.
If you’re ready to take ownership of operations and thrive in a role where your impact will be seen daily, we’d love to hear from you.
