Manufacturing Manager
Peel Region, WA | Permanent
Globe 24-7 is partnering with an established mining manufacturing business to appoint an experienced Manufacturing Manager to lead a key WA manufacturing operation.
This is a hands‐on leadership role for someone who understands heavy manufacturing and fabrication and knows how to get the best out of both people and production.
You'll take ownership of the day‐to‐day manufacturing function, working closely with workshop leadership and trades to ensure work is planned effectively, production targets are met and quality remains high.
There's also a strong focus on continuous improvement, with the opportunity to influence how the operation runs, improve workflow and drive greater efficiency across the manufacturing process.
The role
You'll be responsible for:
Leading the manufacturing and workshop operation
Managing production planning, scheduling and delivery
Providing leadership across supervisors, leading hands and trades
Driving productivity, efficiency and continuous improvement
Ensuring quality, safety and production standards are maintained
Identifying bottlenecks and improving workflow
Building a positive, accountable and high‐performing team culture




Working closely with other areas of the business to meet operational and customer requirements
About you
We're looking for an experienced manufacturing leader from a heavy fabrication, engineering, mining equipment or similar industrial environment.
You'll ideally bring:
Experience as a Manufacturing Manager, Operations Manager, Fabrication Manager, Workshop Manager or similar
Strong knowledge of heavy fabrication and welding environments
A trade background in boilermaking, welding or fabrication will be highly regarded
Proven experience leading supervisors and trade‐based teams
Strong production planning and problem‐solving capability
Experience improving manufacturing processes, productivity and workflow
A practical, hands‐on leadership style
This is a excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys being close to the operation and wants the scope to genuinely influence manufacturing performance, people and process.
The role is locally based in the Peel region and may particularly appeal to candidates looking to continue their career within mining and heavy industry without the FIFO lifestyle.
