Our client is a small privately held East Sussex based manufacturing company with c 40 employees. The company is looking to appoint a Managing Director / General Manager, initially for a 6 to 12 month fixed term.
Applicants should have a strong manufacturing background, ideally including metal fabrication and assembly experience, and be comfortable leading all aspects of the business with a hands on style combined with good strategic sense.
The role holder should expect to be prepared to be on site up to five days a week. The role will pay a base (annualised) salary of c£100k. Because of the fixed term nature of the role, the client is happy to consider applications from candidates contemplating retirement in the near term but who would welcome the opportunity and challenge that a further leadership appointment would offer them.
