• Provide expert technical support to sales and production teams, ensuring smooth operation and customer satisfaction.
• Lead application and improvement projects, managing them within budget and timelines.
• Offer accurate job costing and review manufacturing costs as needed.

• Subsidised health care.
• Early finish on Friday's.
