## Job description

This role is part of the Operations leadership team and combines two key areas of responsibility:

(1) Developing and executing the operational strategy in Israel, including improving and establishing processes, identifying efficiency opportunities, working with suppliers, and developing new activities;

(2) Leading the offshoring process (relocating manufacturing and operational activities outside Israel), from building the business rationale through full implementation and operational stability.

### Key Responsibilities

- Develop a multi-year operational strategy together with Operations leadership, and execute it through work plans, clear objectives, and defined KPIs.

- Map, design, and improve operational processes across the entire value chain.

- Identify opportunities for efficiency improvements and cost savings.

- Build strategic relationships with partners in Israel and abroad.

- Evaluate and lead new activities, including feasibility studies, financial analysis, and the development of new manufacturing capabilities.

- Lead and develop processes across the organization’s functions, including Engineering, Procurement, Quality, Production Planning and Control, Logistics, Finance, and Business Development.

- Define the offshoring strategy: map potential products, components, and processes, and analyze cost-benefit (TCO), risks, and feasibility.

- Lead negotiations and commercial agreements, including supply, quality, intellectual property, and confidentiality agreements.

- Lead transfer projects: detailed planning; management of schedules, budget, and milestones; transfer of technical documentation and know-how; and first-article qualification (FAI/PPAP).

- Manage risk and business continuity, including buffer inventory, contingency plans, and regulatory compliance.

- Work with management teams, internal departments, and external parties, and report regularly to Operations leadership on project progress and business results.

### Requirements

### Requirements

- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Industrial Engineering and Management, Mechanical Engineering, Materials/Plastics Engineering, or other engineering disciplines) – required.

- Master’s degree (MBA or Engineering) – an advantage.

- At least 8–10 years of experience in Operations, Procurement, Engineering, or Project Management roles in a manufacturing company, including proven experience in offshoring processes – required.

- Proven experience working in an organization that includes both R&D and manufacturing, with ongoing collaboration across Development, Manufacturing Engineering, Quality, Procurement, Production Planning and Control, Logistics, and Finance – required.

- Experience leading or supporting new product introduction (NPI), including design for manufacturing and procurement (DFM/DFA), engineering change management (ECO/ECN), and supplier and part qualification – required.

- Proven experience managing and developing subcontractors and suppliers in plastics (injection molding, molds and tooling, extrusion) and mechanical manufacturing (machining, sheet metal and metalwork, casting, mechanical assemblies) – required.

- Experience managing strategic processes, including preparing RFQs and tenders, analyzing proposals and costs (Should-Cost/TCO), conducting commercial negotiations, and signing supply agreements – required.

- Proven experience leading efficiency and cost-saving projects and building and implementing operational processes across the organization, with measurable results (cost savings, quality improvement, shorter lead times) – required.

- Experience leading or actively participating in a manufacturing transfer or offshoring project (between sites, to another country, or to an external supplier abroad) – a significant advantage.

- Experience working with suppliers and manufacturers outside Israel.

- Experience in an organization operating under strict quality standards and regulatory requirements (such as medical, defense, high-tech, or other industries with demanding quality requirements) – an advantage.

- In-depth technical understanding of plastics manufacturing processes (injection molding, molds, raw materials, and polymers) and mechanical manufacturing processes (machining, bending and cutting, coatings and finishes, assembly).

- Understanding of manufacturing costs and product cost structure, and the ability to build a financial model comparing in-house manufacturing in Israel, subcontracting in Israel, and manufacturing abroad (Make / Buy / Offshore).

- Familiarity with quality standards.

- Familiarity with international trade, including delivery terms (Incoterms), customs, imports and exports, currency management, and overseas supplier risks.

- Strong business and financial analysis skills, including building feasibility cases, conducting sensitivity analyses, managing budgets, and presenting recommendations to senior management.

- Willingness to travel abroad as required by project needs.

**Live in Maytronics’s hiring system.** Read from the company's own applicant tracking system, not reposted from a job board — so it's a real, open requisition rather than an ad that outlived the role.

We remove it as soon as it disappears at source.
