About the Role:
We're looking for a hands-on Plant Head to run our 8,000 sq. ft. manufacturing facility — covering glass/acrylic printing, CNC machining, mechanical workshop, soldering, electronics testing, touch-panel assembly, and dispatch. You'll own daily production flow, machine uptime, and team output, while working closely with a young, growing team.
Key Responsibilities:
- Own daily production planning, output tracking, and on-time dispatch

- Coordinate cross-functional activities: assembly, testing, spray painting, screen printing, anodizing, machining

- Resolve day-to-day issues across Production, R&D, Quality, Stores, and Dispatch
- Submit monthly plant performance reports
Who Can Apply (Ideal Backgrounds):
- Strong mechanical engineering fundamentals — materials, machining, workshop equipment
- Practical CNC and machine maintenance knowledge
- Proven manpower/production management experience
- Comfortable in a mixed mechanical + electronics environment (added advantage)
- Hands-on, shop-floor leadership style — not a purely desk-based role
- Good with a young team; open to mentoring and day-to-day floor presence
