Manufacturing Lead

Experience Required: You must have a strong background in contract manufacturing. Demonstrated experience in managing Greenfield and Brownfield projects is highly desirable. Primary Coordination And Execution: You will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to ensure timely project delivery. It will be your responsibility to design and layout facilities for Greenfield and Brownfield projects, considering operational requirements and constraints. Additionally, you will be required to prepare detailed manufacturing documentation for new facilities and third-party (3P) manufacturing units. Supplier And Partner Management: You will oversee and streamline the operations of existing contract/3P manufacturing units. Identifying, onboarding, and operationalizing new contract/3P manufacturing partners will be part of your role. It is also crucial to resolve partner-related issues while maintaining strong, compliant relationships with suppliers. Leading contract negotiations with inputs from legal and other key stakeholders will be a key responsibility. Regular site visits to assess readiness for product launches and new product development activities will also be required. Process Optimization And Implementation: You will evaluate workflows to identify inefficiencies and implement best practices in both existing and new manufacturing setups. Facilitating product and process approvals, permits, and licenses in collaboration with project, quality, and regulatory teams is essential. Ensuring adherence to CGMP and safety protocols across all plant operations is a critical aspect of the role. Furthermore, you will need to incorporate cutting-edge practices into equipment selection, process design, and facility layout to ensure optimal performance. Cost Management: Identifying opportunities for cost optimization across contract/3P manufacturing units will be a key focus. Implementing continuous improvement strategies to achieve sustainable cost savings in operations is a crucial part of the role.,
