Job Description:

Position name- Factory Head

Role Overview

Location: Kolkata • on site • full time

We are hiring a Factory Head to run the factory. You own capacity, output, quality, cost and people across planning, cutting, stitching, machine and hand embroidery, and finishing

The floor runs on experience today, not numbers. Putting the measurement systems in place is your first-year mandate. Production is order-wise: many small, unique orders, each with its own specs and finishing notes, on delicate fabrics. The floor also runs on a few key people — part of the first year is building a named backup for every section so no section depends on one person.

Core Responsibilities
- A) Planning & Capacity
- Confirm capacity for every order before Merchandising commits a dispatch date
- Own the factory production plan
- Decide line loading and sequencing
- Plan manpower, machine and shift capacity against the forward order book
- B) Production Execution
- Run cutting, stitching, machine and hand embroidery, and finishing to the TNA




- Receive dyed and printed inputs from the dyeing and printing unit; flag input problems to QC and Merchandising the same day
- Hand over finished, QC-approved goods for packing against Merchandising’s packing instructions
- C) Embroidery — In-House
- Own the full embroidery operation: both machine lines, hand embroidery
- Supervise job work timeline and technical quality through to acceptance
- D) Measurement Systems & Reporting
- Install the factory’s measurement layer: SAM, section-wise efficiency, defects per hundred units, wastage, machine downtime, manpower productivity
- Set the daily and weekly MIS and run production reviews off the numbers
- Send a daily production report by section; manage production planning with capacity numbers in hand
- E) Quality Process
- Build quality controls into cutting, stitching and embroidery so defects are prevented, not inspected out
- Act on in-process QC findings the same day — QC’s pass/fail st
