Job Description

Production Manager - Construction & Steel Fabrication

Singapore | Full-Time

About the Role

If you're tired of firefighting in chaotic factories, this is your chance to take ownership.


At Lai Yew Seng, we deliver some of Singapore's most demanding projects -- from

crash-rated bollards

and

road blockers

to

prefabricated security walls

and major infrastructure works.


We're looking for a

Production Manager who builds systems, not excuses.

You'll run our steel fabrication line end-to-end -- from material planning and manpower scheduling to making sure every fabricated piece leaves the factory on time, safely, and with pride.


This isn't a "supervise and wait" role. You'll be trusted to lead, improve processes, and be part of a stable company that values builders who take ownership.

Key Responsibilities

Lead daily factory and production operations (steel, bollards, prefabricated walls). Plan, organise, and monitor fabrication schedules to meet delivery deadlines. Work closely with QS, engineers, and site teams for smooth handovers. Build and enforce systems for quality, stock, and manpower efficiency. Mentor supervisors and guide workers to achieve consistent output. Uphold safety and MOM/BCA compliance at all times. Spot gaps and propose practical improvements to save time and cost.

Requirements

Diploma/Degree in Mechanical, Manufacturing, Civil, or related Engineering.

Minimum 3 years' experience

in

construction or steel fabrication management

. Strong grasp of fabrication drawings, welding processes, and QC. Proven ability to lead teams and coordinate with site operations. Familiar with MOM workplace safety regulations. You take initiative to refine processes instead of waiting for instructions.

Nice to Have:

ERP/digital production tracking experience. Familiarity with specialised crash-rated/security fabrication works.

What's In It for You

Be part of

iconic projects

across Singapore's built environment. Full ownership of factory operations -- your systems, your leadership. Career pathway towards

Senior Production Manager / Operations Head

. Competitive salary + annual performance review. A stable, growth-oriented company with long-term projects. * Supportive, no-nonsense culture -- we value honesty, initiative, and strong communication.
