Macildowie seek an experienced sales-focused General Manager to join an ambitions manufacturing business based in south Oxfordshire.
The business is a small, growing hi-tech manufacturing and finishing business which specialises in the production of bespoke wood products. Their product portfolio is incredibly vast, from picnic tables to building panels to bird/bat boxes.
The highly capable team here are now in a position where they need a new General Manager to do two things:
1) help generate sales to feed the productivity of the production facility
2) manage the staff on-site to ensure efficient (and therefore profitable) use of resources
This is a permanent role and would typically need someone 5 days on-site in south Oxfordshire.
The client needs someone with experience in developing B2B product sales (i.e. not software or service sales) and general management of a factory or facility, including of course accountability for a profitable P&L. Both of these are a non-negotiable.
The organisation is populated with a diverse, engaged and competent workforce. They would appreciate a leader who (in as modest a way as possible) considers themselves as an inspirational role-model. In simpler words, leading by example is helped in high regard by the employees.
It's a fun and engaging place to work and there are very exciting future plans for the business, so we'd love to hear from you if this sounds like a bit of you!
