Job Description:

Geomiq is the UK’s leading Digital Manufacturing Marketplace, we offer an AI-powered B2B MaaS (Manufacturing as a Service) solution, seamlessly connecting buyers and suppliers to drive efficiency and innovation. We’re now looking for a Senior Manufacturing Operations Manager with the scars and experience to match our ambition. Someone who’s seen what happens when systems fail — missed deliveries, rework, lost margin — and knows how to build the processes that stop it before it starts. You’ll be the force that turns operational chaos into commercial precision.

Job Responsibility:

  • Drive Throughput & Revenue: Ensure manufacturing orders flow seamlessly from quote to dispatch
  • Procument & Negotiation: Awarding Purchase Orders and negotiating with global suppliers to maximise margins
  • Engineer Prevention: Build and enforce preventative systems that catch issues before they hit customers — from quality escapes to late deliveries
  • Control Contracts & Performance: Oversee supplier and manufacturing partner contracts, ensuring compliance with commercial, delivery, and quality standards
  • Measure What Matters: Track on-time delivery, NCR rate, and yield — and make those metrics visible, accurate, and relentlessly improving
  • Lead With Discipline: Build a culture of accountability across every hub — no loose ends, no excuses, no repeat issues
  • Collaborate Across Teams: Work hand-in-hand with Sales, Quality, and Product to align capacity, systems, and commercial priorities
  • Report With Clarity: Deliver operational performance reports that leadership can trust — transparent, data-backed, and actionable

Requirements:

  • 7–15 years in manufacturing operations, production, or supply chain, ideally within CNC machining, Injection Moulding or contract manufacturing
  • Proven track record owning throughput, delivery, and margin performance — not just process or project oversight
  • Strong commercial acumen — confident managing contracts, supplier SLAs, and quote-to-cash processes
  • Experienced in preventative quality systems (RCA, CAPA, ISO 9001 mindset) and building processes that stop repeat issues
  • Comfortable with data and digital tools (ERP, CRM, dashboards) — using metrics to drive action, not just report
  • Experience managing distributed suppliers or teams across multiple regions (UK, China, India, EU preferred)
  • Exceptional cross-functional communicator — able to align Sales, Quality, and Operations on one commercial goal
  • Has seen failure and fixed it — understands how to turn operational pain points into system-level prevention
What we offer:
  • Competitive Salary: We offer pay that reflects your skills and the value you bring
  • Stocked Kitchen: Enjoy snacks, fresh fruit, and drinks all day
  • 23 Days Annual Leave: Recharge with 23 days off, plus bank holidays
  • Birthday Off: Take an extra day to celebrate your birthday
  • Christmas Shutdown: Relax over the holidays with additional company-wide time off
  • Pet-Friendly Office: Bring your dog to our pet-friendly workspace
  • Team Events: Connect with colleagues through monthly team-building activities
  • Career Growth: Benefit from our focus on internal promotions and development
  • Cycle to Work Scheme: Save on commuting, reduce emissions, and stay active
  • Expanding Perks: Look forward to more benefits as we grow
