Job Purpose

Key Responsibilities

1. Time & Motion Studies

• Conduct time studies (SAM / MOST / stopwatch) on BannerBuzz signage and tarpaulin production processes (printing, cutting, and stitching / welding as applicable).
• Validate area process times against field data before they are proposed as standard, and feed signed-off entries into the Departmental SAM Catalog.
• Set and maintain Takt Time for BB / Tarps production lines against current demand.

2. Warehousing & Stores Layout

• Map material and finished-goods flow through Stores / Warehousing; identify bottlenecks in put-away, picking and dispatch.
• Design and standardise storage layout, bin and rack organisation, and stores visual management (labelling, FIFO discipline).
• Support logistics coordination on dispatch flow and gate turnaround.

3. Line Balancing & Changeover

• Balance manning and workstation layout on BB / Tarps lines against Takt Time.
• Execute SMED / quick-changeover initiatives on BB / Tarps production equipment, as directed by the Sr. Manager – IE.

4. Visual Management

• Implement hourly production tracking boards for BB / Tarps lines and Stores throughput, in coordination with the BPM Team.
• Introduce Poka-Yoke (mistake-proofing) where quality or inventory-accuracy leakage is systemic rather than one-off.

5. BOM & Cross-Functional Support

• Support the MDM Team on BOM-linked time measurement (crew size, labour and machine calculation) for BB / Tarps SKUs.
• Coordinate with the peer Industrial Engineer (Cutting & Aluminium Hardware), and escalate capacity- or inventory-impacting findings to the Sr. Manager – IE and the Manager – Global Capacity.

Qualifications & Experience

Essential

• Diploma or B.E. / B.Tech in Industrial, Apparel, Textile, Mechanical or Production Engineering.
• 3–8 years of experience in apparel manufacturing.
• Working knowledge of time and motion study methods (SAM / MOST / stopwatch).
• Comfortable working across the production floor.
• Working proficiency in Excel.

Preferred

• Exposure to stitching, signage, print or banner production operations.

Skills & Competencies

• Shop-floor first: a hands-on problem solver who is comfortable working directly on the floor.
• Layout and flow: organised, with a strong eye for layout and material flow.
• Data discipline: accurate, disciplined data collection; time studies are run to a standard, not an approximation.
• Collaboration: works cleanly with the Sr. Manager – IE, the peer plant-area IE, the MDM Team and the BPM Team.
