This company sits right at the forefront of innovation in the marine sector, developing advanced products that are reshaping how modern boats and marine systems are built and deployed.

This is a high-impact role for someone who thrives in high-volume production environments, understands the pressure of delivery deadlines, and refuses to compromise on quality.

 The Role As Production Manager, you’ll take full ownership of the production function, ensuring output targets are met while maintaining exceptional standards across quality, safety and efficiency.

You’ll be responsible for:

• Balancing speed, cost and quality in a fast-moving manufacturing setting
  
  
• Working closely with engineering, supply chain and senior leadership to support growth
  
  
• Ensuring robust quality control, compliance and H&S standards are embedded on the shop floor
  
  

This is a hands-on leadership role – visible on the floor, close to the product, and central to the company’s success.

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience as a Production Manager in a high-volume manufacturing environment such as automotive
  
  
• Strong leadership skills with the ability to motivate and scale teams
  
  
• A quality-driven mindset – speed without shortcuts
  
  
• Experience implementing or improving production systems and workflows
  
  
• Comfortable operating in a fast-growth, innovative business
  
  
• Marine, automotive, aerospace, composites or advanced manufacturing backgrounds all highly relevant
  
  

Why This Role?

• Join a business genuinely pushing boundaries in marine technology
  
  
• Be part of a forward-thinking, engineering-led culture
  
  
• Play a key role in shaping production as the company scales
  
  
• Long-term career progression within a rapidly growing organisation
  
  

If you’re a Production Manager who enjoys pace, responsibility and building something special — this is one to explore.
