한국어Plant manager
Métier / rôle
Leads a manufacturing site and is responsible for its safety, quality, delivery, cost and people. Corresponds to the German Werksleiter.
Description
A plant manager is the senior leader of a manufacturing site. The role covers the results of the whole plant: safety, quality, delivery performance, cost and the development of the people who work there. Production, maintenance, quality, logistics and often planning report to the plant manager, directly or through other managers.
In plants that use lean management or operational excellence, the plant manager sets the direction, takes part in the daily routines such as tier meetings and gemba walks, and removes obstacles that teams cannot solve alone. Typical questions are where the bottleneck is, how to keep delivery reliable and where improvement effort pays off most. In Germany the role is called Werksleiter.
