Plan, develop and evaluate applications for energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) on JEOL electron microscopes, including particle analysis, mineral analysis and automated analysis.
About this role
A production control role for JEOL's scientific instruments, covering transmission electron microscopes, mass spectrometers and related products built on a high-mix, low-volume line. The position acts as the coordinating hub of manufacturing, turning sales demand forecasts into production plans and steering every stage through to shipment.
The work spans production scheduling, progress tracking across each process, shipment coordination to meet customer delivery dates, inventory optimisation and the collection and analysis of production data against internal indicators. When a delay appears, the person finds its cause and directs the response. Tools are an ERP system and Excel, and the role works closely with sales, procurement, the production floor and development teams.
Required: experience using Microsoft Office (mainly Excel), and a manufacturing background with interest in production control, such as production engineering, manufacturing, development and design, logistics, procurement or sales.
