Manufacturing IT Team Leader Location: Derbys Salary: Up to 65,000 Working pattern: On site five days per week Employment type: Permanent I'm working with an established manufacturing business that is continuing to invest heavily in its sites, systems and internal technology capability. Their Production IT function has grown considerably over the past few years and they are now looking for an experienced Manufacturing IT Team Leader to take responsibility for the day-to-day management of the team. This is a genuine leadership role, rather than a senior engineering position with a small amount of management added on. You will lead a team of Production IT Engineers, manage priorities and workloads, hold regular one-to-ones, support development and performance, coordinate team coverage and remove any blockers affecting delivery. You will still need to understand the technical environment and be comfortable acting as a technical adviser when required. You will not be expected to spend the majority of your time carrying out hands-on engineering work; however, you must have the technical know-how to step in as and when required. The environment includes Manufacturing Execution Systems, production applications, shopfloor technology, machine integrations and links into wider ERP platforms. You will be responsible for maintaining stable and reliable production systems, coordinating incident resolution and making sure risks are raised before they become larger operational problems. A major part of the role will involve bringing together different teams and priorities across Production, Engineering, Quality, MES and central IT. You will need to explain technical issues in plain English, keep stakeholders informed and make confident decisions within agreed operational parameters. We are looking for someone with: Experience within Production IT, Manufacturing IT, MES or a similar industrial technology environment Previous team leadership, supervisory or line management experience A good understanding of production systems, shopfloor applications and systems integration Experience managing workloads, priorities, incidents and technical escalations The ability to coach, develop and empower technical team members Strong communication skills and the confidence to challenge or escalate concerns when needed A calm and practical approach when dealing with competing priorities A relevant technical qualification, degree or equivalent practical experience Experience working with SAP integrations or LabVIEW would be useful, but neither is essential. This is an on-site role five days per week near Derby on their manufacturing sites depending on operational requirements. There may occasionally be a need for early starts or planned weekend support, with time off in lieu and flexibility offered in return. Alongside a salary of up to 65,000, the package includes 25 days' holiday plus bank holidays, bonus opportunities, a strong pension scheme, death in service cover and access to subsidised private healthcare. It is a good opportunity for someone who enjoys leading technical people, wants genuine ownership of a growing function and is interested in joining a fast-moving manufacturing environment with plenty of investment and change ahead. We're looking to move ASAP on this one so send your CV in for immediate consideration.
