Production Supervisor
We are looking for an experienced manufacturing professional to lead a team of around 30 production employees and coordinate the day-to-day flow of orders across our production areas.
This is a single-shift role with working hours from 6:00 to 14:30, reporting directly to the production director.
You will lead a production team of around 30 people
Your main task will be to organise the work of the production employees, set the order of jobs and make sure the individual operations follow on smoothly. You will keep an overview of work in progress, deadlines and the readiness of material, drawings, tools and other documents.
You will report directly to the production director, with whom you will agree production priorities and the progress of orders. CNC programming is handled by our lead programmer — what we expect from the supervisor is above all leading people and coordinating production, not programming CNC machines.
What you will be responsible for
- 01Organising work and assigning tasks to around 30 production employees
- 02Setting the order of jobs and individual operations
- 03Tracking fulfilment of the daily and weekly production plan
- 04Checking deadlines and the status of work in progress
- 05Coordinating workers and the continuity of production operations
- 06Checking the readiness of material, drawings, tools and other documents
- 07Solving everyday operational problems and passing important information on to the production director
Someone who understands manufacturing and knows how to lead a team
- Experience in engineering or custom production
- The ability to read technical drawings
- The ability to organise the work of several people in different production roles
- The ability to set priorities and handle everyday operational situations independently
- The ability to lead people, communicate clearly and insist that agreed tasks are completed
- A thorough and systematic approach
- Confident computer skills and experience keeping production records
- Experience as a supervisor, foreman, shift leader or production coordinator
- Experience with CNC machining
- Experience with welding or the production of weldments
- Knowledge of planning one-off and small-batch production
You don't have to be a specialist in every production technology. What matters most in this role is an overview of production, the ability to lead people and good organisation of work.
CNC programming is handled by our lead programmer. When needed, the supervisor may exceptionally help out in production or briefly stand in for a missing worker, but this is not a regular part of the role.
What you can expect from the role
Single-shift operation
Fixed working hours from 6:00 to 14:30.
Five weeks of holiday
Five weeks of holiday per calendar year.
Meal allowance
An employer contribution towards meals.
Clearly defined responsibility
You will be responsible for the day-to-day organisation of the production team and will report directly to the production director.
Let's talk informally first
For the first contact we don't need a formal cover letter. Write us a few lines about your experience with organising or managing production, and attach a CV if you like.
We will start with a short phone call. If the role feels like a good fit on both sides, we will meet at our Rosice nad Labem site, walk through the production areas and discuss the responsibilities of the role in more detail. We will then agree on the next steps.
