ppPlease note that preference will be given to candidates already residing in the Netherlands to ensure a smoother onboarding process. At this time, we are not able to provide relocation support. /p h3About the job /h3 pAt Qlayers,we’re transforming the way large industrial assets, such as ships and storage tanks, are coated. Our patented robotic technology delivers higher-quality coatings, improves efficiency, and helps reduce the environmental impact of industrial maintenance. /p pQlayers' painting robots are assembled internally from 8 core submodules. We’re scaling fast – more than doubling monthly robot output while expanding from one robot type today to two (and potentially three) next year. The Head of Production will own this scale-up end to end: turning a single-product assembly operation into a multi-product, high-throughput production organization, without breaking quality, cost, or delivery. /p pThis is a hands-on leadership role. You'll set the direction for production, build the team and systems to get there, and personally unblock the risks that threaten series production. /p pbWhat you'll own /b /p pbProduction Strategy Scaling /b /p ul liDefine the direction and goals that let Qlayers hit its production targets as robot volume and product variety grow; /li liProactively identify and mitigate risks to series production before they become line stoppages; /li liBuild the international supply chain needed to support 2x+ monthly volume across multiple robot types; /li liEstablish strategic partnerships (suppliers, contract manufacturers, logistics) that support Qlayers' growth trajectory. /li /ul pbProduction Structure Delivery /b /p ul liOwn the robot delivery schedule and keep all stakeholders aligned on it; /li liDesign and maintain the “Assembly Flow” framework – the operating system for how robots get built, and how it flexes across submodules and product types; /li liSet up and maintain the Division and its working documents as the single source of truth for what's in production; /li liEnsure delivery schedules are communicated clearly and kept current across the business and communicate them with other divisions (Development, Sales, Management). /li /ul pbTeam Division Management /b /p ul liBuild, lead, and supervise the production team as it scales with volume and product complexity; /li liSet and manage the division's budget; /li liHire and develop the leads needed under each production workstream (COGS monitoring, robot production, production feedback, design freezes NPI). /li /ul pbCost Financial Accountability /b /p ul liOwn communication of cash flow and cost data from robot production to Finance; /li liProvide COGS data to Development to drive cost-reduction opportunities; /li liMonitor COGS per production batch and hold the organization accountable to targets. /li /ul pbCross-Functional Supplier Interface /b /p ul liRoute DFM (design-for-manufacturing) feedback back to Development and into the Assembly Flow; /li liServe as the technical point of contact for suppliers during production together with Supply Chain Manager; /li liSet up the design freeze process with Development to protect long-term part availability; /li liDetermine how new design/engineering changes get integrated into production without disrupting throughput; /li liOwn new article introduction (NAI) for both parts and assemblies. /li /ul pbWhat you bring /b /p ul liTrack record scaling a manufacturing or assembly operation – ideally through a volume and/or product-line expansion, not just steady-state operations; /li liStrong financial acumen: comfortable owning COGS, budgets, and cost-reduction conversations with Finance; /li liSharp organizational skills – able to build process (like an Assembly Flow framework) from scratch and keep it working as complexity increases; /li liStrong negotiation skills for supplier and partnership agreements; /li liExperience building or scaling an international supply chain; /li liComfortable operating at both the strategic level (direction, partnerships, risk) and the operational level (delivery schedules, batch COGS, supplier questions); /li liRobotics, hardware, or complex electromechanical product experience is a strong plus. /li /ul pbYou are someone who /b /p ul liLeads by example and enjoys working alongside the team; /li liLikes building and improving rather than maintaining the status quo; /li liTakes ownership and isn't afraid to make decisions; /li liSolves problems in a structured and pragmatic way; /li liHas a keen eye for quality and continuous improvement; /li liThrives in a fast-moving scale-up where no two days are the same. /li /ul pbWe offer /b /p ul liGross monthly salary €4000- €5400.
