Drive continuous improvement initiatives across manufacturing, design, and engineering operations to optimise efficiency and reduce costs.
Collaborate with production and maintenance teams to improve equipment reliability, minimise downtime, and maximise operational performance.
Lead product development initiatives, including custom vehicle body designs, modifications, and engineering solutions tailored to customer requirements.
Work closely with sales and business development teams to provide technical support during quoting, tendering, and customer consultation processes.
Evaluate new materials, technologies, and manufacturing techniques to enhance product performance and competitiveness.
Manage engineering budgets and capital expenditure projects, ensuring effective allocation of resources.
Conduct design reviews, engineering calculations, feasibility studies, and technical assessments.
Oversee documentation control processes and ensure accurate maintenance of engineering records.
Support research and development activities aimed at improving product innovation, safety, durability, and manufacturing efficiency.
Foster a culture of safety, accountability, teamwork, and continuous improvement throughout the engineering department.
Build and maintain effective relationships with customers, suppliers, contractors, consultants, and regulatory authorities.
