Are you passionate about continuous improvement and compliance? A natural problem solver who thrives on organisation, process, and structure? Do you have a strong background in manufacturing operations?
If this sounds like you, we have an exciting opportunity!
Compass Point Recruitment is partnering with a local SME manufacturer to recruit an Operations Compliance Manager to join their growing team.
This newly created role is designed to support the Operations Director in developing and delivering the annual Operations Plan, with a focus on compliance, quality standards, and operational efficiency.
What Makes This Role Stand Out?
You'll have the opportunity to make a significant impact within a well-established company undergoing an exciting transition. With support from both the Operations Director and Managing Director, this role offers a path for growth and development, allowing you to shape the operational backbone of the business.
With no direct people management, this role offers the opportunity to dive into a wide range of operational tasks, from reviewing processes and policies to managing ISO accreditations. You'll also handle occasional office duties, making this a highly varied and fast-paced position!
Key Responsibilities:

•Manage Health & Safety, ensuring all procedures comply with regulatory standards and company policies.
•Oversee facilities management, including service contracts, building maintenance, fire safety, and utility management.
•Support the implementation of IT systems to streamline operations and improve efficiency.
•Ensure compliance with environmental, health, and safety regulations across all departments.
•Support the HR function, including job description creation, policy reviews, and maintaining staff records, 1:1s, implementation of PDRs
•Manage fleet and facilities, including liaising with utility companies
What We're Looking For:
•Experience managing and implementing ISO9001 and ISO14001 requirements is essential.
•Knowledge of Lean Manufacturing principles (qualifications desirable).
•Strong background in facilities management and Health & Safety compliance.
•Excellent organisational and problem-solving skills.
•A methodical, process-driven approach with attention to detail.
•Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to communicate at all business levels.
•Proficiency with Microsoft Office and a forward-thinking approach to technology.
•Someone who is keen to contribute, add value and progress!
Why You'll Love Working Here:
•Monday-Thursday 8:30-5:00, Friday 8:30-2:30 early finish Fridays!
•Onsite parking and free refreshments.
•Access to state-of-the-art facilities.
•Annual health check and 24 days holiday, plus Bank Holidays.
•Staff referral program and additional benefits, including a complete site shutdown during Christmas (taken from annual leave)
•£40-45k starting salary!
