We foster a hybrid work culture that supports onsite and remote collaboration across teams and time zones.   Most production managers make widgets. You'll make the simulators that train surgeons.   Surgical Science's products are used in hospitals and training centers across the globe to help clinicians build the skills they need before they ever operate on a real patient. Behind every simulator that ships from our Gothenburg facility is a production team that has to get it right — every time.   We're looking for an Operations & Production Manager to lead that team. Based at our headquarters in Gothenburg, you'll oversee production, build, and warehouse operations and be the driving force behind output, quality, and efficiency. You'll report directly to the COO and play a central role in how we scale our manufacturing capabilities as the company grows. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who genuinely loves the craft of operational excellence — and who understands that the people running the floor are the engine of everything.   What you'll actually do Lead and develop our production, build, and warehouse teams — setting direction, maintaining standards, and building a culture where people do their best work Own production planning and scheduling, balancing capacity, delivery commitments, and resource constraints in a dynamic, fast-moving environment Define and monitor KPIs across the full production operation and drive structured improvement when targets aren't met Champion continuous improvement — whether that's lean practices, workflow redesign, or tooling upgrades, you'll find and close the gaps Ensure full compliance with safety and quality standards across all production activities Manage budgets and resources — workforce, materials, and equipment — with both short-term delivery and long-term sustainability in mind Collaborate closely with QC, R&D, and supply chain to keep product launches on track and production issues resolved fast Own the people side of your operation: hiring, onboarding, developing, and when necessary, managing performance and exits   What you need to bring 5–8 years of production or operations management experience, with a track record of leading teams and delivering results in a manufacturing environment Strong understanding of production planning, capacity management, and shop floor operations Experience with continuous improvement methodologies (Lean, 5S, Kaizen, or similar) A natural people leader — someone who builds trust on the floor, sets clear expectations, and develops talent over time Sharp analytical skills: you read KPI dashboards, find root causes, and act on data — not instinct alone Clear communicator in English (Swedish is a plus); comfortable engaging with both the production floor and senior stakeholders Proficient with Microsoft Office and production management tools   Even better if you have Background in medical devices, electronics, or complex hardware manufacturing Experience in a quality-regulated or ISO-certified production environment Familiarity with ERP systems and production scheduling software Experience scaling a production operation during a period of company growth   Where this can take you As Surgical Science expands its product portfolio and increases production volumes, the scope of this role grows with it. The natural next step is broader operational leadership — with visibility into supply chain, facilities, and global manufacturing strategy. You'll work at the centre of a company that has been growing consistently, backed by over 25 years of innovation in medical simulation.   You'll also be building something: a production function that matches the ambition of our products and the trust our healthcare customers place in us.   Life at Surgical Science 🌍 Global company, Swedish roots — HQ in the heart of Gothenburg 🏥 Products that genuinely impact patient safety worldwide 💻 Hybrid work flexibility ⌚ Flexible working hours 📈 A growing company with real investment in its people and operations 🤝 Culture built on respect, curiosity, and perseverance   Surgical Science as an employer Surgical Science is a global and continuously expanding organisation.
