Production Supervisor
We are looking for an experienced person from engineering production to take over the day-to-day coordination of our production workplaces. You will allocate work, track order progress and ensure continuity in cooperation with the production director.
You will step into an established role in production
The role of production supervisor has long had an important place in our company. Following the retirement of a long-standing colleague, we are looking for an experienced successor to take over the coordination of day-to-day production.
We are looking for someone who knows their way around engineering production, can lead people and keeps an overview of orders across the individual workplaces.
What you will be responsible for
- 01Allocating work to production employees
- 02Setting the order of jobs and operations at the workplaces
- 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
- 06Solving everyday operational problems
- 07Checking the readiness of material, drawings, tools and documents
Someone who understands production and can lead people
For this role, an overview, organisational skills and working with people matter more than top expertise in a single production trade.
- experience from engineering or custom production
- the ability to read technical drawing documentation
- the ability to organise the work of several people and trades
- the ability to set priorities and make decisions
- natural authority and matter-of-fact communication
- a thorough and systematic approach
- basic computer work and record keeping
- experience as a supervisor, 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 meet every point. The main task is to manage production — the supervisor may help in production or briefly stand in for a missing worker when needed, but their main responsibility remains the organisation of people, orders and connected operations.

Long-term cooperation
A long-term role with room for professional development and a direct impact of your experience on production.
Let's talk informally first
For the first contact we don't need a formal cover letter. Write us a short note about your experience with organising or managing production, and attach a CV if you like. We'll be happy to show you around production and explain how the role is set up when we meet in person.
