Job Description

Production Manager - Poole

TeamJobs are recruiting for a Production Manager to join a fast-paced, high-volume operation in Poole.

This is a hands-on leadership role for an experienced manager who enjoys being at the heart of an operation - leading people, improving performance, solving problems and making things happen.

You'll take ownership of a busy operational area, leading large teams across production, yard, parts and warehouse functions. It's an environment where pace, people and performance matter, and where you'll have the opportunity to genuinely influence how the operation runs.

We're particularly interested in speaking with managers from automotive, vehicle processing, recycling, waste, FMCG, manufacturing or other high-volume operational environments.

Salary:
£45,000 - £55,000 DOE + performance-related bonus

Working hours:

Monday to Friday

Rotating shifts: 6:00am - 3:00pm / 3:00pm - 12:00am

42.5 hours per week

No weekend shifts

The role:

Lead and develop large operational teams across multiple departments

Take ownership of daily output, productivity and shift performance

Drive improvements across people, processes and operational flow

Identify bottlenecks, reduce downtime and improve efficiency

Use KPIs and operational data to make decisions and drive performance

Work closely with maintenance and operational teams to keep the site moving

Drive continuous improvement and introduce better ways of working

Maintain high standards across health & safety, quality and compliance

Create an accountable, positive and high-performing team culture

What we're looking for:

Proven management experience within a fast-paced production, manufacturing or operational environment

Experience leading and developing sizeable teams

A hands-on management style - someone comfortable being visible on the shop floor

Strong understanding of KPIs, productivity, labour efficiency and operational performance

Experience improving processes, reducing waste or increasing output

Commercially aware with the confidence to make operational decisions

Strong people management skills with the ability to get the best from different personalities

Experience within automotive, vehicle processing, recycling/waste, FMCG, heavy industry or high-volume manufacturing would be particularly advantageous.

What's in it for you?

£45,000 - £55,000 salary DOE

Performance-related bonus

Monday to Friday working - no weekends

25 days holiday + bank holidays

Staff discounts, including discounted fuel

Enhanced pension contributions

Health & wellbeing benefits after probation

This is a great opportunity for an experienced operational leader who wants more than simply maintaining the status quo. You'll be joining a growing business where you can influence performance, develop people and make a visible impact on the operation.
