About GEM Cable Solutions

GEM Cable Solutions is a leading UK manufacturer of bespoke cable assemblies, harnesses, looms, control boxes, panels and network solutions. We serve high-reliability, regulated industries including aerospace, defence, marine, robotics, satellite and telecoms.

Operating from a Class 8 clean room and holding AS9100D, ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001 accreditations, we pride ourselves on exceptional quality and engineering capability.

The Role

We are seeking a hands-on, resilient and technically strong Production Manager to lead our cable assembly operations.

You’ll be responsible for managing day-to-day production, driving operational excellence, ensuring AS9100 compliance, and implementing Lean and 6S methodologies — while remaining close enough to the tools to step in and support the team when needed.

Key Responsibilities

Oversee day-to-day production operations in the Class 8 clean room, ensuring on-time, accurate delivery of customer orders.
Liaise closely with Engineering to ensure processes, test procedures and documentation are fully AS9100 compliant.
Engage, coach, motivate and lead the production team, supporting their growth, skills development and career progression.
Provide hands-on support when required, stepping in to manufacture cable assemblies or resolve issues directly on the line.
Monitor communication across multiple production lines to eliminate downtime and improve efficiency.
Establish and maintain production procedures, metrics and processes to drive productivity, quality and optimisation.
Analyse and identify areas for improvement in cost savings, production lead times and process efficiency.
Develop and oversee operational procedures for outgoing shipments, handling and product disposition, maintaining the highest standards of quality.
Maintain and manage the Master Production Schedule, ensuring accurate communication of customer acknowledgement dates to the Administration team.
Support the MRP system rollout, ensuring all stakeholders are engaged and trained on new processes.
Implement and sustain Lean methodologies, 5S, 6S and Six Sigma tools to drive continuous improvement.
Lead and support internal and external quality audits.
Ensure clean room compliance in all production areas — cleanliness, documentation, training, and regulatory adherence.

Person Specification

Essential:

Degree or equivalent qualification in Electrical / Electronic Engineering, or strong equivalent hands-on experience.
Proven experience in cable assembly / wire harness / loom manufacturing, ideally in regulated sectors (aerospace/defence).
Working knowledge of AS9100 quality management systems.
Proven ability to lead, coach and train teams, building capability and maintaining high standards.
Confidence to pick up tools and manufacture assemblies when needed.
Demonstrated success implementing Lean, 5S/6S, or Six Sigma principles.
Strong organisational skills with experience managing Master Production Schedules.
Experience with MRP systems or similar production planning tools.
Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills.
Resilient and results-driven character, comfortable leading change and challenging the status quo.

Desirable:

Experience working in a Class 8 clean room.
Familiarity with IPC/WHMA-A-620 standards.
Aerospace/defence sector experience.
Strong understanding of root cause analysis (5 Whys, Fishbone), value stream mapping, and continuous improvement tools.

Pay: £30,333.51-£57,657.02 per year

Benefits:

Company pension
Free parking
Health & wellbeing programme
Referral programme

Work Location: In person
