Job Advertisement: Production Manager – Pipe Fabrication

Location: Yennora, NSW | Employment Type: Full-time

NAFFCO Australia is a recognized leader in the Firefighting Industry. We are known for delivering high-quality, custom-fabricated solutions for wet systems to a diverse range of industries. Due to continued growth, we are seeking a highly skilled and hands-on Production Manager to take the helm of our dynamic fabrication workshop.

This is a pivotal leadership role for a technical expert who thrives on optimizing processes, leading teams, and ensuring projects are delivered to the highest standards of safety, quality, and efficiency.

The Opportunity:

Reporting directly to the Regional Director, you will be responsible for the end-to-end management of our fabrication operations. You will translate project requirements into actionable production plans, leading a team of skilled tradespeople to meet critical deadlines and exceed client expectations.

Key Responsibilities:

Drive Production Excellence: Plan, coordinate, and oversee all daily fabrication activities—from cutting and welding to final assembly—ensuring targets for schedule, cost, and quality are consistently met.

Lead and Develop Your Team: Supervise, mentor, and develop a team of welders, fabricators, and fitters, fostering a culture of high performance, accountability, and continuous skill development.

Champion Quality & Compliance: Ensure all fabricated pipework strictly adheres to engineering drawings, project specifications, and relevant industry codes. Work closely with QA/QC to uphold our unwavering commitment to quality.

Uphold a Zero-Harm Culture: Maintain and promote an industry-leading safety culture, ensuring strict adherence to all WHS/OHS procedures, SWMS/JSA protocols, and site safety rules.

Optimize Resources: Manage workforce allocation, material usage, and equipment to maximize productivity and minimize waste.

About You:

To be successful in this role, you are a hands-on leader with a solid foundation in metal fabrication and a proven track record of driving results. You are as comfortable on the workshop floor troubleshooting a technical issue as you are in a meeting presenting production metrics.

Essential Qualifications & Experience:

A trade qualification or tertiary degree in Mechanical Engineering, Fabrication, or a related field preferred but not necessary.

Minimum of 5 years' experience in a metal fabrication environment, with at least 2 years in a supervisory or management capacity.

Strong technical expertise in pipe fabrication processes, welding techniques, and materials.

Proficiency in reading and interpreting piping isometric drawings and fabrication specs.

Demonstrated experience in production planning, resource allocation, and performance reporting.

Excellent leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills.

A solid understanding of WHS/OHS standards and a commitment to safety.

Strong technical expertise in Metal fabrication processes, welding techniques, and materials. Preferably in metal pipes fabrication.

What We Offer:

A competitive remuneration package negotiated based on experience.

A key leadership role in a stable and growing company.

The opportunity to make a tangible impact on our operations and culture.

A supportive management team dedicated to your professional success.
