JobItUs in India is seeking an experienced Factory Production & Processing Manager to lead marble stone operations, including planning block dressing, slab cutting, and polishing. The role requires strong project scheduling, yield optimization, and quality inspections to meet tight tolerances.
You will supervise plant managers and shift workers, manage safety protocols, ensure TPM maintenance, and control costs while reporting MIS data to the GM.
Production Scheduling: Plan daily, weekly, and monthly targets for block dressing, gangsaw slabbing, tile cutting, epoxy/resin filling, and line polishing.
Yield Optimization: Minimize raw block wastage during wire sawing and slab cutting; optimize stone yield per cubic meter.
Quality Assurance: Enforce strict inspection standards for slab thickness, surface gloss levels, epoxy setting, edge squaring, and structural fissure identification.
Block Procurement & Grading: Work closely with quarry heads or import teams to select, grade, and inspect rough marble blocks (checking for hair fractures, color uniformity, and density).
Inventory Control: Oversee yard management for raw blocks, finished slabs, cut-to-size orders, and waste slurry/chips.
Asset Maintenance: Implement Preventive and Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) schedules for gangsaws, multi-wire machines, automated polishing lines, bridge cutters, and overhead cranes.
Consumables Management: Track and optimize usage of diamond segments, wire ropes, abrasives, resin/hardener chemicals, and cutting oils to reduce cost per square foot.
Labor Supervision: Manage plant managers, supervisors, machine operators, and contract labor across multiple shifts.
EHS & Safety: Enforce safety protocols around heavy block handling, overhead crane operation, slurry dust management, and machine guarding.
P&L & Budgeting: Monitor operating expenses (power consumption, diamond segment wear, resin chemical consumption, labor hours) against project budgets.
MIS & ERP Tracking: Review daily operational reports (Production, Maintenance, Dispatch) and report directly to the General Manager (GM) or Vice President.
Experience: 8–15 years in marble, granite, or natural stone manufacturing.
Technical Knowledge: Deep understanding of gangsaws, multi-wire cutters, auto-polishing machines, vacuum resin plants, and stone chemistry (epoxy, polyester resins).
Education: Bachelor’s in Mechanical Engineering, Mining Engineering, Production Engineering, or equivalent operational experience.
