Job description

Role Purpose

The Senior Industrial Engineer leads the analysis, design, and optimisation of manufacturing systems to improve safety, productivity, capacity, material flow, space utilisation, cost, and operational performance. The role applies Industrial Engineering, Lean, data analytics, and automation principles to develop scalable and sustainable solutions across manufacturing and logistics operations.

Key Responsibilities

1. Process & Productivity Optimisation Analyze manufacturing processes using time study, work measurement, line balancing, value-stream mapping, and capacity analysis. Identify bottlenecks, waste, and productivity opportunities. Establish standard work, labor standards, cycle times, and engineered capacity models. Drive improvements in labor productivity, equipment utilization, throughput, lead time, and operating cost. Lead Lean/continuous-improvement initiatives using structured problem-solving methodologies.
2. Material Flow & Intralogistics Design and optimise end-to-end material flow from receiving and warehouse through production to finished-goods dispatch. Define point-of-use inventory, line-side presentation, replenishment strategy, supermarkets, buffers, Kanban, milk runs, and material-handling methods. Optimise material movement to reduce handling, travel distance, WIP, and non-value-added activities. Collaborate with Supply Chain, Warehouse, Manufacturing, and 3PL teams on integrated material-flow solutions.
3. Factory Layout & Space Optimisation Conduct space, capacity, adjacency, traffic-flow, and future-growth analysis. Balance production density with safe people, material, equipment, and autonomous-vehicle movement. Establish layout standards and design principles supporting Lean flow, flexibility, automation, and future expansion. Lead layout development for new products, capacity expansion, equipment installation, and factory transformation projects.
4. Capacity & Manufacturing System Design Develop capacity models covering labor, equipment, space, material handling, and production constraints. Perform scenario analysis for volume changes, product mix, shift patterns, automation, and future demand. Determine appropriate resource requirements and identify capacity constraints. Support strategic manufacturing footprint and capital-investment decisions with quantitative analysis.
5. Industrial Engineering Standards & Governance Develop and maintain IE methodologies, design standards, calculation models, and engineering guidelines. Establish standardised approaches for time study, capacity calculation, layout design, material flow, space utilisation, and productivity measurement. Ensure engineering solutions comply with EHS, Quality, regulatory, ergonomic, and operational requirements. Promote replication of proven solutions and best practices across manufacturing sites.
6. Data Analytics & Performance Management Analyse operational data to identify losses, constraints, and improvement opportunities. Develop engineering KPIs and performance models covering productivity, utilisation, capacity, flow, WIP, space, and cost. Use simulation, statistical analysis, visualisation, or digital modelling where appropriate. Validate improvement benefits through measurable before-and-after performance.
7. Technical Leadership & Coaching Serve as an IE subject-matter expert for complex manufacturing and material-flow problems. Mentor junior Industrial Engineers and support development of IE capability. Review engineering analyses, layouts, standards, and improvement proposals. Facilitate workshops and provide technical guidance to cross-functional teams.

Qualifications & Experience

• Bachelor's degree in Industrial Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Systems Engineering, Operations Engineering, or a related discipline, typically with 5–8+ years of relevant manufacturing/industrial engineering experience.
• Preferred experience includes Lean Manufacturing, work measurement, line balancing, capacity modeling, factory/warehouse layout, material flow, ergonomicsand manufacturing systems.
• Useful technical capabilities include AutoCAD or equivalent layout tools, Excel/data analytics, Power BI, simulation tools, ERP/MES/WMS systems, and Lean/Six Sigma methodologies.
