Build better processes. Drive measurable improvements.

Join our engineering team and play a key role in improving manufacturing efficiency, supporting new product launches and solving production challenges. You will lead Assistant Engineers and Technicians, collaborate with cross-functional teams and turn process improvements into measurable results on the production floor.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and develop the team: Guide Process Assistant Engineers and Technicians in delivering engineering support that meets production targets and business requirements.

• Develop effective manufacturing processes: Work with internal departments to design and improve process flows that meet customer requirements and support efficient production.

• Drive productivity improvements: Monitor Units Per Hour (UPH), identify bottlenecks and implement Kaizen initiatives to improve production efficiency.

• Manage engineering changes: Coordinate Engineering Change Order (ECO) implementation with production and relevant stakeholders to ensure smooth transitions and minimise disruption.

• Maintain accurate process documentation: Create and update work instructions, the Engineering Change (EC) master list and tracking records to reflect current production requirements.

• Support manufacturing systems: Maintain Shop Floor Control (SFC) process controls and relevant SAP updates to ensure consistency between documented processes and production execution.

• Train production teams: Deliver practical training on new and revised work instructions to support consistent implementation on the production floor.

• Support new product launches: Coordinate process readiness and validation activities for New Product Introduction (NPI), enabling a smooth transition to mass production.

• Resolve production challenges: Troubleshoot process issues, identify root causes and implement corrective actions to maintain output and product quality during mass production.

• Uphold quality and responsible manufacturing standards: Support ISO implementation, audits and maintenance activities, and ensure process activities comply with Responsible Business Alliance (RBA) requirements.

What We’re Looking For

• A Degree in Engineering with at least 3 years of relevant manufacturing experience.

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a hands-on approach to root cause analysis and corrective action.

• The ability to lead and guide Assistant Engineers and Technicians in daily process engineering activities.

• Effective communication and collaboration skills to work with customers, headquarters, factory teams and colleagues across functions and levels.

• Strong project management skills, with the ability to coordinate engineering changes and deliver improvement initiatives on time.

• The ability to work independently, prioritise competing tasks and manage multiple initiatives with minimal supervision.

• Strong attention to detail in process documentation, system updates and production execution.

• An understanding of RBA requirements and a commitment to responsible business practices.

Why Join This Role?

Take ownership of manufacturing improvements from process planning through production execution. Gain exposure to NPI, engineering change management and team leadership while making a direct impact on productivity, quality and manufacturing performance.
