Summary
Production Manager
Poole, Dorset
Production Manager Salary: £45,000–£60,000
We’re working with a well-established precision engineering company that’s built its name on producing high-quality machined components for a wide range of industries. The business has a strong manufacturing setup, capable of handling everything from standard production runs to complex one-off parts made to drawing.
They’re looking for a Production Manager to take charge of a busy, well-equipped workshop, overseeing CNC, XYZ-CNC, and manual machining, along with other operations. You’ll be working closely with a Production Planner, Production Engineer, and Production Supervisor to keep workflow smooth and efficient across multiple departments.
What you’ll be doing as a Production Manager:
- Overseeing day-to-day operations across CNC, semi-CNC, and manual machining
- Managing gear cutting, finishing, and plating departments
- Working closely with planning and engineering to improve efficiency and workflow
- Managing and developing a skilled team across day and split shifts
- Leading on recruitment and being the main point of contact for HR matters in your area
- Driving continuous improvement in quality, productivity, and team performance
What you’ll need as a Production Manager:
- Solid experience in CNC and manual machining and production management or supervision
- Strong leadership and communication skills
- A hands-on approach, with a genuine interest in process improvement
- Mechanical Engineering qualifications would be a bonus, but experience counts just as much
- At least 3 years’ experience as a Production Manager
What’s in it for you as a Production Manager:
- Salary between £45,000–£60,000, depending on experience
- Company pension, extra holiday, onsite parking, and regular team events
- A stable role within a company that values long-term people, not short-term fixes
If you’re a Production Manager who wants to lead from the front and keep a busy engineering workshop running like clockwork, this one’s for you.
