Head of Swiss Turning / 100 %

Head of Swiss Turning (m/f/d) / 100 %
Provide structure. Lead a team. Live the technology.
Welcome to Leitner AG – a true Seeland original. Our surgical instruments are used in the most demanding operating rooms worldwide. We develop manufacturing processes, manufacture, assemble and clean – with precision, passion and team spirit. To turn complexity into precision, we are looking for a personality for our Swiss turning department who takes responsibility – not from an office, but right in the middle of the process.
Head of Swiss Turning (m/f/d) / 100% What awaits you - Leading, shaping, implementing
You will take over the disciplinary and functional leadership of our newly established Swiss turning team (currently 5 employees plus apprentices)
You will be actively involved in daily operations – in setting up, programming and producing highly precise stainless steel parts on our Tornos and Tsugami machines (7 systems)
You lead through presence – in the hall, at the shop floor board, in conversations
You lead a team of experienced specialists: A technical senior expert is by your side. Three long-standing colleagues bring know-how in process reliability, quality, machine availability and training.
You work closely with our production planning (PPS) and design the detailed planning for your team – resilient, realistic and well-communicated
You ensure that planned structures are also lived – today there is still sometimes a lack of process reliability and systematics, much is based on individual experience. Here you bring order – with tact and a clear line
Your contribution - Lead clearly. Bring people together. Understand technology.
You provide your team with orientation and ensure a clean, efficient workflow in daily business
You recognize where short-term improvements ("Quick Wins") lie and where long-term systematics must be built up
You recognize abilities – and deploy your people according to their strengths
You build a resilient team structure, even when things get difficult personally
What you bring - Structure. Resilience. Connecting power.
You have experience in the field of CNC Swiss turning or decollatage, ideally in medical technology or comparably demanding industries
You are familiar with Tornos, Tsugami or similar machines and feel confident in programming, setting up and producing
You are a bridge builder – whether to the neighboring short-turning department (shift coordination, technical exchange), to quality assurance (testing processes, first-piece approvals) or to your production manager. You ensure that interfaces do not rub, but engage
You do not understand leadership as status, but as a real contribution to team success – and you want it because you know how valuable it is
You want to take on responsibility – and are ready to move a team forward that is waiting for new leadership
You plan proactively, think in networks and speak plainly
What we offer you - Responsibility with impact. Room for design. Culture with down-to-earthness.
A key role in a highly specialized production environment with world-class products
A lot of creative freedom in a clean, modern infrastructure (new building, standardized workstations, clear layouts)
A team that is waiting for development – and needs someone who creates clarity
A real family business with a direct link to management, short paths and healthy common sense
Annual working time model with block times, fair framework conditions, no shift obligation – but a clear understanding of machine availability
Ready?
If you want to make a difference – not on PowerPoint, but with oil on your hands and responsibility on your shoulders – then you have come to the right place.
