Production Supervisor – Ember Digital Signage (a division of United Gaming Ltd)

Lead. Build. Deliver.

Are you a hands-on leader who thrives on turning complex projects into high-quality outcomes? Do you enjoy balancing technical problem-solving with team leadership and operational performance?

We’re looking for a Production Supervisor to lead the end-to-end delivery of our Ember LED digital signage projects – from design validation through to build, installation readiness, and dispatch.

About the Role

This is not a sit-back-and-manage role. You’ll own production outcomes, ensuring projects are delivered:

  • On time
  • On budget
  • To a high technical and quality standard

You’ll lead the team, but also step in when needed—solving problems, keeping momentum, and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.

Key Responsibilities

Project & Technical Leadership

  • Validate scope, system design, and technical requirements
  • Oversee drawings, BOMs, and production-ready documentation
  • Ensure alignment with commercial and margin expectations

Production Planning & Delivery

  • Build and manage production schedules
  • Allocate labour and resources effectively
  • Ensure full installation readiness and on-time dispatch

Execution & Quality Control

  • Oversee fabrication, assembly, wiring, and system configuration
  • Ensure testing, QA, and compliance standards are met
  • Step in to resolve issues and maintain timelines

Leadership & Team Performance

  • Lead and coordinate the production team day-to-day
  • Drive accountability, clarity, and output
  • Coach and develop team capability

Continuous Improvement

  • Identify efficiency and cost improvements
  • Work with suppliers to resolve technical issues
  • Improve systems, processes, and scalability

What We’re Looking For

  • 5+ years in production, manufacturing, or operations leadership
  • Experience in a project-based environment
  • Strong planning, organisation, and systems thinking
  • Ability to lead AND do (this is critical)
  • Commercial awareness and cost control mindset
  • Technical background in electrical, AV, or LED systems, experience in the use of CAD and an EAS qualification are preferred but training will be provided if needed.
  • A proactive, problem-solving attitude

What Success Looks Like

  • High-quality builds delivered right first time
  • Clear ownership across the team
  • Efficient use of labour and materials
  • Strong team performance and accountability

Why Join Us?

We’re building something strong—and we want people who want to be part of that journey.

Benefits include:

  • Subsidised medical insurance
  • Life insurance cover
  • Birthday leave
  • Bonus scheme
  • Mobile phone allowance
  • Ongoing training and development opportunities
  • A business that values performance, accountability, and continuous improvement
