As an experienced hand on Production Manager, my tenacious and proactive approach resulted in an improvement in all my key production objectives. My excellent man management skills have provided my team with the right support to allow them to focus on key elements of their function and personal development, which in turn improved our production output by 20% and reduced our costs by 6%. One of my key achievements was implementation of a visual management and cell teams to drive the responsibility of the company core values down to the cell.Over the last year I have had sole responsibility for the production planning across five functional departments in a business, which had no formal planning tools. This has been a challenge as a key KPI was to complete various projects in line with the strategy put in place by the directors to close the business by year-end. My high level of organisation is a natural aptitude that I have been able to build on throughout my industry experience. I pride myself on my ability to minimise risk in all projects I manage and my conflict resolution skills have been invaluable to my team.
Listed skills include Engineering, Manufacturing, Contract Negotiation, Operations Management, and 23 others.
