About the role
Albury Wodonga | Advanced Manufacturing | Leadership Opportunity
Are you a manufacturing problem solver who loves making things better?
Some people manage quality systems. Others transform the way things are done.
We're looking for the latter!
Sawyer Sourcing is partnering with a highly respected, long-established manufacturer to find an exceptional Quality & Continuous Improvement Manager for its local operations.
This isn't a role for someone who simply ticks boxes, writes procedures and sits behind a desk.
We're looking for someone who gets a genuine buzz out of solving manufacturing challenges, improving processes, developing people and seeing the results of their efforts on the factory floor.
Someone who can spot an opportunity for improvement, bring people along for the journey and make it happen!
The Opportunity
You'll be joining an established manufacturing business with a strong engineering pedigree, sophisticated production processes and products that play an important role in Australia's critical infrastructure.
This is your opportunity to take ownership of quality management systems while championing a culture of continuous improvement across the operation.
You'll work closely with production, engineering, maintenance, supply chain and management teams to identify opportunities, solve problems and drive meaningful improvements.
Think smarter processes, fewer defects, better performance and a workforce that genuinely embraces quality.
What Will You Be Doing?
We're looking for someone who knows their way around a manufacturing environment, understands what makes a great operation tick and isn't afraid to challenge the way things have always been done!
You might currently be a Quality Manager, Quality Assurance Manager, Continuous Improvement Manager, Manufacturing Manager or an experienced engineering professional looking for your next challenge.
Ideally, you'll bring:
We're more interested in your achievements, practical experience and ability to make things better than the particular products you've manufactured.
Above all, you'll be a hands-on leader who enjoys getting out onto the factory floor, working with people and turning improvement opportunities into measurable results.
Why Should You Be Interested?
Because this is an opportunity to do more than maintain the status quo. You'll be joining an established manufacturer with a proud history, technically interesting products and the opportunity to make a genuine contribution to its future.
You'll have the chance to influence how things are done, work with experienced manufacturing professionals and see the tangible results of your ideas.
And if you're someone who enjoys rolling up your sleeves, getting involved and making good manufacturing operations even better, this could be exactly the challenge you've been looking for.
Ready to Make Your Mark?
If you're an experienced manufacturing quality professional who thrives on solving problems, driving improvements and making things happen, we'd love to hear from you.
