Job Description
**Manufacturing Execution Manager** | Gurugram | Full-time | INR 7.1-28.7 LPA
**About the role:**
- Position within Project Management (Manufacturing), under the Manufacturing vertical
- Level: mid level
- Reports to the functional head for Project Management (Manufacturing)
**What you'll do:**
- Handle core project management (manufacturing) activities on a day-to-day basis
- Use Industrial Engineering regularly as part of core deliverables
- Work closely with adjacent teams to align priorities
- Track progress against agreed timelines and escalate issues proactively
**What you'll need:**
- Industrial Engineering
- Production Planning
- ERP (Production Module)
- Inventory & Material Planning
- Project Management (Manufacturing)
- Diploma (Production Engineering)
- 5+ years of relevant experience
**Good to know:**
- Expect a mix of scheduled reviews, ad-hoc troubleshooting, and documentation as the workload shifts through the week. Benefits include health insurance, provident fund contributions, and paid leave in line with company policy.
- The organisation has historically promoted from within for a majority of its senior and lead openings. Applications without a clear summary of relevant experience are less likely to be shortlisted for the first round. In addition to fixed pay, the role carries eligibility for annual appraisals and merit-based increments.
- The next logical step from this position is a senior or lead-track role within the same function. Internal job postings are open to employees who've completed a minimum tenure in their current role. Managers here tend to give context rather than instructions, leaving room for the individual to decide how a task gets done.
- The role alternates between independent deep work and short coordination huddles with stakeholders across functions. Skip-level conversations with senior leadership are encouraged at least twice a year to discuss career direction. The package is structured with a fixed component, performance bonus, and standard health coverage.
- Mornings are usually spent on planning and status reviews, while the rest of the day is given over to hands-on delivery and problem-solving. The hiring process typically includes a screening round, a technical or functional assessment, and a final discussion with the reporting manager. Candidates are encouraged to highlight measurable outcomes from previous roles rather than just responsibilities held.
- Relocation assistance may be extended for candidates moving from a different city, subject to approval. Work culture here leans collaborative, with regular knowledge-sharing sessions and an open-door policy for raising concerns.
- The team follows a flat structure where ideas are evaluated on merit rather than hierarchy, and feedback flows in both directions. Leave policy follows standard industry norms, including earned leave, sick leave, and public holidays as applicable.
- The environment rewards initiative - people who flag problems early and propose fixes tend to grow faster here. There's usually a block of uninterrupted time set aside for focused work, separate from meetings and coordination calls.
- Shortlisted applicants will be evaluated on both domain knowledge and practical problem-solving ability. The organisation places a premium on ownership; once a task is assigned, the expectation is to see it through without hand-holding.
- Priorities can shift mid-week depending on business needs, so adaptability matters as much as technical depth. Cross-functional exposure is built into the role by design, so the person will regularly interact with adjacent teams and leadership.
- New joiners typically get a short structured onboarding before being handed independent ownership of their first deliverables. No two days look identical - some are heavy on execution, others are spent largely in planning and cross-team discussions.
- A typical day starts with reviewing priority tasks and syncing with the immediate team before moving into focused execution work. High performers in this role typically move into a broader ownership scope within 18-24 months. Compensation includes standard statutory benefits along with performance-linked variable pay.
