Manufacturing Project Manager

British Sugar, the leading supplier of sugar to the UK market, approached Arras People because of the focus on project management and specifically because of our manufacturing project managers. The role was unusual which is something Arras People excel at: those "hard to fill" positions. A manufacturing project manager with experience of not only manufacturing systems but also I.T and business change. No matter how complicated a requirement may seem, Arras People can translate it to the UK project management marketplace, sometimes it's just a matter of sector terminology or how a role may be advertised.
