Roles & Responsibilities


We are a UAE-based provider of advanced security technologies, delivering

solutions across tax verification, fuel integrity, telecom monitoring, and bio-surveillance.

We are seeking a hands-on, shop-floor-focused Factory Manager to lead all aspects of factory

operations at our new Abu Dhabi tax stamps production site. The ideal candidate will have at least

5 years of experience running a factory, preferably in security printing or high-security

manufacturing, and will be deeply involved in planning, order management, procurement,

production, quality, and logistics. This is not a desk job — we’re looking for someone who thrives

on the shop floor, leads by example, and drives operational excellence through LEAN principles,

ERP (SAP) mastery, and strong interpersonal leadership.


Desired Candidate Profile

  • Oversee production planning, ensuring alignment with customer demand

and operational capacity.

  • Manage Procurement activities, order processing and fulfillment,

coordinating across departments to ensure timely delivery.

  • Lead daily factory operations, maintaining optimal production flow and

resolving bottlenecks.

  • Ensure quality control standards are met and continuously improved.

  • Supervise logistics and inventory, optimizing material flow and warehouse

operations.

  • Be a visible leader on the shop floor, coaching teams and solving problems

in real time.

  • Drive LEAN manufacturing and continuous improvement initiatives.

  • Utilize ERP systems (preferably SAP) for tracking, reporting, and decision

making.

  • Monitor KPIs and implement corrective actions to improve performance.

  • Ensure compliance with security, safety, and regulatory standards.



Qualifications:

  • Minimum 5 years of experience managing factory operations, ideally in

security printing, packaging, or regulated manufacturing.

  • Strong expertise in planning, order management, production, quality, and

logistics.

  • Proven experience with LEAN methodologies and continuous improvement.

  • Proficient in ERP systems, preferably SAP.

  • Highly hands-on, with a strong presence on the shop floor.

  • Excellent interpersonal and leadership skills.

  • Experience in the UAE or GCC region is an advantage.

  • Strategic mindset with hands-on problem-solving capability.

  • Culturally aware, adaptable, and comfortable working across multiple

jurisdictions.

Language Skills: • Written and spoken English is essential. Arabic is a plus
