Requirement for a Production Manager in Newtownards

Your new company

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a well-established manufacturing business based in Newtownards, Northern Ireland. With a strong reputation for quality and innovation, the company operates in a fast-paced, collaborative environment where continuous improvement and operational excellence are key. It offers a supportive culture and a chance to make a real impact in a leadership role.

Your new role

As Production Manager, you’ll lead the knitting department, overseeing production performance, team leadership, and operational efficiency. You’ll be responsible for achieving key targets in output, quality, waste reduction, and machine uptime. The role involves close collaboration with planning, maintenance, and new product development teams. You’ll also manage staffing, training, and HR processes while ensuring compliance with health and safety and quality standards.

What you'll need to succeed

You’ll have proven experience leading teams, ideally in a production or manufacturing environment. Strong communication, organisational, and problem-solving skills are essential, along with a proactive and analytical mindset. While experience in textiles is desirable, it’s not essential—what matters most is your leadership capability and drive to deliver results.

What you'll get in return

In return, you’ll benefit from a structured working week of 8am to 5pm with an early finish at 1pm on Fridays, 33 days of annual leave, and access to discretionary performance-based bonuses. You’ll be part of a collaborative and supportive team in a respected business that values its people and encourages professional growth. This is a great opportunity to take ownership of a key department and contribute to the ongoing success of a forward-thinking manufacturing operation.
