Sunbury-on-Thames, Surrey, United Kingdom

Immediate Start
£60k - £70k Annual
Full-Time
Plant Manager - Sunbury Site (£60k+)

If you're the kind of leader who doesn't hide in an office, knows plant inside-out, and can run a busy yard like a well-oiled machine - this role is built for you.

The Mission

This site moves fast. Machines, people, deadlines, breakdowns, logistics - everything depends on a Plant Manager who can take control, set standards, and keep the whole operation running without excuses. If you've got the management experience, the plant knowledge, and the backbone to run a high-pressure environment, you'll thrive here.

This isn't a clipboard job. It's a hands-on leadership role where your decisions directly impact productivity, uptime, and the quality of every machine that leaves the yard.

What You'll Own

Full plant yard leadership - overseeing daily operations, workflow, repairs, servicing, and staff coordination.

Team management - leading fitters, drivers, yard staff and external contractors with clear direction and high standards.

Maintenance planning - scheduling servicing, inspections, and repairs to maximise uptime and minimise costly surprises.

Operational control - ensuring plant is safe, compliant, available, and ready for deployment when needed.

Quality assurance - making sure machines leave the yard in top condition, not "just good enough".

Problem-solving & escalation - handling breakdowns, shortages, delays, and unexpected issues with calm, confident decision-making.

Reporting & accountability - delivering clear updates on plant status, staffing, repairs, and operational performance.

What You Need to Bring

Strong management experience - you've led teams before, set standards, and held people accountable.

Deep plant knowledge - you understand machinery, servicing cycles, common failures, and what "good" looks like.

Confidence under pressure - this site is busy, and you'll be the one everyone looks to when things get messy.

Clear communication - straight talking, organised, and able to keep multiple moving parts aligned.

A leadership style that gets results - firm, fair, and respected.

Why This Role Stands Out

You're not stepping into a stagnant yard. You're stepping into a site where your decisions matter, your standards shape the operation, and your leadership directly affects productivity across the business.

If you want a Plant Manager role where you're trusted, valued, and paid properly for your experience - this is it.

To apply for this role please send your CV or call (phone number removed) ext 224 to (url removed)

If this role would not be of interest to you but may be suitable friend or colleague, we can offer paid referral fees for successful placements.
