Continuous improvement and performance management Establish baseline performance (e.g. OEE, throughput, WIP, lead time) and track it through pilot and volume phases. Identify initiatives to increase utilisation, reduce waste and stabilise processes as volumes grow. Data input to support the creation and maintenance of standard work, work instructions and training material based on accurate timings and best practice. Provide regular feedback into future line and facility concepts for subsequent phases of industrialisation. Wider project and cross-functional support Contribute to the Scope of Work for production equipment (performance requirements, cycle times, changeover expectations). Support risk assessments (e.g. process FMEA) with data from existing operations. Provide input to utilities and infrastructure planning (peak and average loads, duty cycles) based on process timing and utilisation.Skills and Experience Strong engineering awareness, ideally in aerospace or complex component manufacturing (mechanical, industrial or manufacturing engineering). Experience with time studies, work measurement and value stream mapping, with a focus on maintaining accurate, up-to-date timings. Automation/robotics experience. Familiarity with OEE, utilisation, line balancing and lean manufacturing principles. Ability to interpret production data, layouts and process documentation, and convert them into actionable design inputs. Comfortable working on the shop floor, observing processes and engaging with operators and supervisors. Effective communication skills to work with Manufacturing Engineering, Operations, Quality, Facilities, HSE and other support functions. Experience with NPI or industrialisation projects is highly desirable.Personal Attributes Analytical and data-driven, with strong attention to detail and timing accuracy. Curious about how processes really work and willing to spend time in the operation. Able to challenge assumptions constructively and influence design decisions. Comfortable working across pre-launch, commissioning and volume production phases. If you receive suspicious outreach claiming to be from us, please contact us via the ManpowerGroup website
