A Tier 1 supplier to the automotive industry that manufactures an array of high-precision components, is now looking for a Project Manager to join their growing organisation.

Reporting to the Platform Manager, the Project Manager will take control of full, end-to-end projects, ensuring customer expectations and quality standards are exceeded. You will utilise internal stakeholders to deliver project timings to customers in order to set their expectations which you will then need to adhere to.

With an understanding of production processes in a high-precision environment, you will take a lead on, and matrix manage, other departments in the business that will also be involved in other projects.

Program timing and budgets
Design and development of new products
Manage the Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP) of new products and their launch
