Plant Manager

A Plant Manager oversees daily operations at a manufacturing facility. You might ensure production schedules are met and make sure safety and compliance standards are adhered to. Plant Managers might check production is meeting quality standards and resolve any issues that occur during the manufacturing process. You might also attend to issues such as budgeting and scheduled maintenance.

Plant Managers should be organised and able to handle several tasks at one time. You’ll need to have good leadership skills and be able to communicate well with all members of your organisation. Plant Managers must be able to manage budgets, deadlines and staffing issues.
