We are seeking a Shift Manager to lead our moulding operations at Harboro Rubber Co Ltd. This role is responsible for the strategic oversight of the department, ensuring production remains efficient, safe, and high-quality.

- Performance Metrics: A practical understanding of OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness), scrap reduction, and cycle time optimization.
- Resource Management: Ability to manage labor allocation and machinery utilization to avoid bottlenecks.
- Safety & Compliance: Experience acting as a lead for health and safety, specifically regarding PPE and COSHH standards.
- Methodical Problem Solving: Ability to use Root Cause Analysis (RCA) to identify and fix production or quality issues at the source.
- 5S Methodology: Experience maintaining a "tour-ready" facility through consistent auditing and organization.
