Health, Safety, and Environmental Compliance: Promote and enforce a strong culture of health, safety, and environmental compliance, ensuring all operations align with QEHS standards and regulations.
Quality Assurance: Maintain high standards of quality control throughout the fabrication process, conducting reviews and ensuring customer specifications are consistently met.
Resource and Inventory Management: Ensure efficient use of resources and raw materials, with proper inventory management systems in place to support production and minimise downtime.
Project Management: Support and coordinate the planning and execution of key projects, ensuring timely delivery while meeting budgetary and technical requirements.
Collaboration: Liaise with cross-functional teams including engineering, supply chain, and project management to ensure alignment on design, production, and delivery goals.
Key Requirements: Experience: Minimum 5+ years experience in production or fabrication management, ideally in heavy engineering or modular build environments. Proven experience in reviewing and interpreting complex engineering drawings and technical documentation.
Key Skills: Strong leadership and communication skills with the ability to motivate and develop teams.
