A specialty chemicals client in Selangor needed an experienced Production Manager to drive operational excellence. We sourced a dynamic leader with a strong engineering background and expertise in Lean, EHS, and continuous improvement.
The selected candidate, with over eight years of operations leadership in chemical and packaging environments, quickly implemented best practices in 5S, cost control, and training. Their leadership improved productivity, reduced scrap, and reinforced safety, enhancing plant performance and supporting long-term sustainability goals.
We were tasked with sourcing a Plant Manager for a new oil upgrading facility in remote Alberta. We identified a candidate with over a decade of experience in oil and gas operations and expertise in Canadian regulatory compliance.
