Do you have solid day-to-day Excel experience trackers, schedules, costings used as a core part of your daily work?
Have you worked in an administrative or coordination capacity within an apparel, textiles or similar production environment?
Are you comfortable in a role that is primarily process and admin-driven, rather than one involving supplier strategy, sourcing decisions or demand planning?
MacGregor Black is partnering with a global manufacturer of technical protective clothing on the search for a Production Administrator based in Doncaster, UK, on a 12-month fixed-term contract.
This is a business built on a reputation for safety-critical, high-performance garments used by professionals across more than 80 countries. The Production Administrator keeps the engine room of the manufacturing operation running maintaining trackers, chasing dates, updating tech packs and keeping critical path on schedule.
