Job Purpose:

To plan, supervise, and optimize production processes to ensure quality, efficiency, and timely completion of manufacturing targets.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Task Excellence (Production Efficiency & Accuracy)

Ensure production output meets ≥95% of planned targets with minimal deviations. Maintain accuracy in job execution as per design drawings and specifications. Achieve First-Time-Right ratio ≥90% (parts/components produced without rework).

2. Process Improvement & Optimization

Identify and implement at least 2 process improvement initiatives per quarter to reduce cycle time, scrap, or energy usage. Standardize production workflows through SOPs and checklists. Support lean manufacturing / Kaizen initiatives to improve shop-floor efficiency.

3. Quality Assurance & Control

Maintain defect/rework levels at <3% of total production. Ensure 100% adherence to QC checkpoints before handover to installation/dispatch. Actively resolve quality complaints within 48 hours of escalation.

4. Cost Control & Resource Utilization

Achieve material utilization ≥98% (minimize wastage/scrap). Control overtime within approved limits (<5% of total man-hours). Optimize machine utilization rate ≥90%.

5. Safety & Compliance

Maintain zero major accidents on the production floor. Ensure 100% PPE compliance by all workers under supervision. Conduct at least 1 safety drill/toolbox talk per month.

6. Collaboration & Team Contribution

Provide timely guidance to welders, fitters, operators, and helpers for smooth workflow. Achieve ≥90% positive feedback from shop-floor team members and supervisors. Coordinate effectively with design, purchase, and dispatch teams to prevent bottlenecks.

7. Client Relation & Recognition (Indirect Contribution)

Ensure production timelines meet 100% of client delivery commitments. Support installation/dispatch teams with technical clarifications when required. Contribute to client satisfaction by reducing production-related escalations to <2 per quarter.

8. Identifying / Researching & Exploring New Opportunities

Research and propose at least 2 new fabrication techniques/materials/tools per year. Benchmark competitor production practices for cost/quality improvements. Assist seniors in evaluating feasibility of new product lines or custom solutions.

9. Problem Solving & Root Cause Analysis

Lead root cause analysis for at least 80% of production issues (delays, quality failures, equipment breakdowns). Document corrective & preventive actions (CAPA) for recurring problems. Reduce repetitive errors by at least 20% year-on-year.

10. Documentation & Reporting

Submit 100% accurate production logs and daily progress reports. Maintain traceability of material usage and job cards. Provide weekly reports on production vs. plan, downtime, and manpower utilization.

11. Professional Behavior & Continuous Development

Maintain punctuality & discipline with <2 unapproved absences per quarter. Participate in at least 1 technical training session per half-year. Demonstrate leadership qualities by mentoring junior staff/operators.

Key Skills / Competencies:

· Strong leadership and supervisory ability.

· Knowledge of fabrication, welding, and machining processes.

· Problem-solving and analytical mindset.

· Good communication and coordination skills.
