Collaborate with Project Managers and Campaign Managers to ensure production teams have the information, drawings, and resources needed to meet deadlines.
Communicate production updates, challenges, and changes effectively across departments.
Coordinate material procurement and project-specific orders alongside the Production Manager.
Manage CNC workflow and ensure machine output aligns with production priorities.

Workshop Operations & Quality Control

Promote and maintain a strong culture of quality control throughout the workshop.
Ensure all machinery, tools, and equipment are operated safely and maintained appropriately.
Take ownership of workshop organisation, housekeeping, and Health & Safety standards.
Monitor fabrication hours and productivity against project budgets and timelines.
