Join us and help shape the future of our operations.
We''re looking for a proactive and highly organised Operations Manager to keep our business running smoothly day to day - and to help us level up our systems and processes as we move towards a new MRP/ERP system.
This is a hands-on role that will see you working closely with production, purchasing, logistics, customer service, and senior management. You''ll be at the heart of our operational flow - making sure orders are processed accurately, shipments go out on time, and our data stays clean and reliable.
Why this role matters
We''re in the middle of a big operational transformation. Your expertise with MRP systems will be vital in keeping things running smoothly during this transition.
Key Responsibilities
- Act as the central coordination point across production, logistics, purchasing, and customer service.
- Input, maintain, and report on accurate operational data in our MRP system.
- Oversee order processing from start to finish - ensuring everything from job cards to delivery notes is spot-on.
- Manage national and international shipments, including all necessary documentation.
- Support the migration from Factory Master to a new MRP system, helping to refine and improve processes.
- Work closely with internal teams and external suppliers to solve problems quickly and effectively.
What We''re Looking For
Essential:
- Proven experience in an operational, logistics, or production management role.
- Hands-on experience with MRP/ERP systems (Factory Master, Dynamics, SAP, or similar) - confident using them daily for order management, production planning, and purchasing.
- Strong organisational skills and the ability to juggle multiple priorities.
- Good working knowledge of Excel and logistics/shipping tools.
- Willingness to be hands on and on the shop floor when required.
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced and reactive environment.
- Background in manufacturing or production environments.
- Experience with ERP/MRP implementation projects.
Desirable:
- Knowledge of ISO standards, health & safety compliance, and international logistics.
- Production planning experience
- Experience of growth within a production environment and the knowledge to help guide the company through growth.
The future scope
This role offers real progression. As our operations scale, there''s the opportunity to step into a more senior role and help shape how we run the business long term.
If you''re ready to be the operational backbone of a growing business - and you''ve got the MRP expertise to keep everything moving - we''d love to hear from you.
Apply now and help us build a stronger, smarter, and more connected operation.
