POSITION SUMMARY

· The Plant Head holds single-point operational accountability for the Company's specialised container and E-house manufacturing facility at Sawantwadi, Maharashtra.

· The role owns the protected, on-time, on-cost and on-quality delivery of the plant's output — data-centre genset enclosures, battery energy storage system (BESS) containers, diesel and gas generator enclosures, and compact substations — across the full coil-to-finished-product process (cutting, forming, robotic welding, C5M painting, assembly and dispatch).

· The Plant Head translates the order book into an executable build plan, holds takt time across the specialised-container line, controls conversion cost and material yield, ensures statutory, quality and EHS compliance, and builds and leads the plant organisation.

DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

· Ensure product and process quality — first-pass yield,



dimensional accuracy from jigs / fixtures, robotic-weld quality, and C5M coating conformance to ISO 12944; own customer / third-party inspection clearance.

· Plan and manage capacity, shift loading and the phased commissioning of plant and machinery; coordinate with projects / procurement on installation, ramp-up and future line expansion.

· Build, lead, train, appraise and mentor the plant organisation (production, quality, maintenance, stores); set KPIs and drive accountability across shifts.

· Ensure statutory, regulatory and standards compliance (Factories Act, pollution / consent to operate, relevant IS / IEC codes) and maintain plant documentation, traceability and the numbering standard.

· Interface with the CEO, design, sales and customers on order feasibility, delivery commitments, escalations and continuous-improvement initiatives.

· B.E. / B.Tech in Mechanical / Production / Industrial Engineering (a Master's or MBA in Operations is an advantage; a Diploma with strong equivalent experience is acceptable).

· Solid grounding in heavy sheet-metal / structural fabrication, welding and industrial painting processes.

EXPERIENCE
