We are currently recruiting on behalf of a long-established and growing manufacturing group for an experienced Technical Manager to join their team. With over 55 years of industry expertise and a recent acquisition expanding their reach, this group operates multiple manufacturing and distribution companies both in the UK and internationally.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a driven and knowledgeable Technical Manager with experience in passive fire protection products, such as fire stopping solutions and fire doors. The role also requires a flexible mindset, as the product range extends well beyond fire protection.

Ensure all products meet relevant regulatory and compliance standards.
Manage the testing and certification process, including external fire tests and internal trials.
Maintain up-to-date product certifications and documentation.
Support product design and development, with CAD assistance from the engineering team.
Provide technical guidance to internal sales teams and external customers.
Build and maintain relationships with suppliers, partners, and certification bodies.
Represent the business at industry events and contribute to future regulatory direction.
Stay informed on trends and innovations across the sector.
Lead the transition from BS 476 Part 22 to EN 1634-1 standards for Fire Doors (UK).
Support business development activities, particularly within the passive fire protection division.
Ideal Candidate Profile:
Minimum of 5 years' experience in a Technical Manager or similar technical leadership role.
Strong technical background in passive fire protection (fire stopping, fire doors, etc.).
Proven experience with testing, certification processes, and liaison with notified bodies.
Experience in product design and development.
Relevant Passive Fire Protection qualifications (desirable).
Strong communication skills and ability to work cross-functionally across teams.
Confident managing multiple projects and shifting priorities.
Keen interest in manufacturing processes and working collaboratively with engineering teams.
Able to learn and understand new product areas beyond passive fire protection.
