Workshop Manager - London, United Kingdom - Cubitts
Description
We're looking for a passionate Workshop Manager to build a best in class production facility in central London, the only one of its kind.
40 million people wear spectacles in the UK alone, but the optical industry hasn't changed in more than three centuries. Products are tired, standards are poor, and glasses wearers are used to sub-standard experiences. We're going to change that.
We already have a brilliant product and brand, an outstanding net promoter score (89), and have moved into a new workshop space in King's Cross, ready for the next stage of our journey.
Now we want to find the right Workshop Manager to manage all production through our workshop - as we grow to become one of the world's most innovative, customer centric, spectacles companies.
The role:
The Workshop Manager will ultimately be responsible for managing the production of all frames which go through our workshop in King's Cross, to the highest quality, and on time.
We have significant growth plans for our workshop, and the Workshop Manager would be responsible for supporting growth in output by 500 – 700% over the next five years, as we grow into a global brand.
The role currently reports to the Head of Operations.
The role will include:
Requirements

Benefits
Some nice things you'll get:
Contract: Full Time, 40 hours. Based in our HQ, Brewery Road, King's Cross.
Salary: Manager Level 1-3 depending on experience. £36,420-£41,119.
