Job Description
This is an exciting and broad-ranging role where you will be deployed across a range of activities. For custom customer projects, you will follow the order fulfilment process, supporting the initial enquiry and then leading the project through the design, build and test phases before supporting the on-site installation.
For product development and new projects, you will be responsible for all aspects of a product lifecycle as defined by the Development Gate Process. This includes initial discussion of the market requirement, evaluation of technology options with the R&D team, the product specification, design, legislative compliance issues and the transition to manufacture with the assistance of other departmental heads.
