My client, who is an award-winning distillery, who due to planned expansion and growth are now seeking an Operations/Production Manager to become a key figure within their management team.

You will be reporting to the CEO and your role will be to take over day to day operations of the site, less the actual distilling and bottling of the product.

You will working alongside the Distillery Manager, and you will have full responsibility for all outbound products that leave the distillery, but also responsible for inbound products (raw ingredients) arriving on site for the manufacturing and distilling process.

Therefore, your duties will include:
• Day to day responsibility for 2 -3 operatives, including day to day management, recruitment, setting targets and onward development etc, as the number is likely to grow within 6 to 12 months.
• Responsibility for making sure all deliveries are dispatched on time and in good order, either direct to retail and other clients, or for direct sales.
• Dealing with all HMRC paperwork and administration
• Fully responsible for HSE for the site.
• Making sure that the company IT management system is fully up to date, including stock control, product availability, raw materials etc.
• Liaison with the current 3 retails outlets to make sure that they have sufficient stock.

Also, as part of this role, you will be involved with a new product launch which is due to go live very soon, and as my client has committed £500,000 investment into the new launch, he is seeking someone who can manage this launch to make it successful for the company.

As there are no formal qualifications or skills needed for this role, he is looking for someone who has a strong Man Management and Operational Support background, however, an interest in Distillery could be an advantage, but is not a requirement.

The ideal candidate would probably be either a SNCO or Officer, who has a strong IT background, who is able to multitask and deal with every shifting priorities and comes across with a can-do attitude and an active problem solver.

In return he is offering a good starting salary, with 25 days holiday, Pension, Staff Discount, and other possible benefits coming online in the future. In addition to this for the right individuals, further progression could be on offer in the future.
