Location: :

Derby - North West

Rate: £ Attractive (Permanent) + excellent benefits and bonus
Industries: Manufacturing
Functional Areas: Purchasing / Supply Chain

Immediate start available for the right person - Due to continued growth, our client in Derbyshire is looking for an experienced Product Manager (Technical) to join their Product Development team and really make their mark.

Reporting directly to the Product Director, we are looking for someone with a technical background covering both Mechanical and Electrical with the ability to be hands on. You would be working closely with the Product Director as well as the Technical Manager and Technical Supervisor and be involved in receiving products from China that have been sourced by the Product Director, evaluating, testing, analysing and approving them. Once this is done, the role is then to organise getting that product onto the shelves. This involves liaising with marketing for product and technical information, having input and suggestion to the catalogue and occasionally negotiating with suppliers after initial negotiations have taken place.

We really need someone that understands distribution lighting and the technical aspects that come with it, who also has a mechanical mind and the ability to process and manage products effectively through the business. This is very much a ?right hand person` to the Product Director that is needed and if you have had dealings with China that would be great but not essential.

There is also a creative aspect of this job that involves working closely with the team on new products, sometimes new designs, inventing names, reviewing features mechanically, passing on ideas for marketing to implement.

Some of your duties may include:

* Answering technical calls and emails from Internal Sales, area sales managers, key customers
* Contacting suppliers for details on new products
* Involvement with purchasing department to confirm price points and logistics for warehouse space etc.
* Market research and bench marking
* Up keep of technical files together with team
* Upkeep of datasheets and website
* Liaison with Marketing for new products and supporting documents
* Creation of product labels and instructions
* Creation of part codes and product variants (BOMS)
* Internal communication of ALL new products, product upgrades/changes etc.
* Testing of new products
* Reading and understanding of British and European Standards
* Occasional customer site visits
* Product Training
* Checking technical drawing
* Working on special projects
* Using software; Microsoft Excel, Solidworks and Relux in the main

So, if you have experience of lighting and/or LED Lighting, have a technical product background and enjoy using your creative flair on occasion and have an analytical mind, our client would like to hear from you and can offer you an attractive package.

In return you can expect:

* Salary: GBP 30k-GBP 40k (negotiable dependent upon skill set and experience)
* Potential bonus
* Hours: Monday : Friday (37.5 hours)
* Holidays: 25 days Bank Holidays
* Free parking, p
