About This Role
This is a plant-floor leadership role at KD Investment Group, an Ethiopian investment firm with diverse holdings. The Production Head will own the entire manufacturing output cycle — from scheduling and quality control to machine uptime and workforce deployment — most likely within a packaging-driven production environment. It suits an engineer who has already run a production line or shift and is ready to take full accountability for output, cost, and people at a single site.
What the Requirements Say About This Role
The eight-year experience floor, with a minimum of two in supervision, signals that the company wants someone who has already made the mental shift from solving technical problems to managing people, schedules, and targets. The mandatory packaging background narrows the pool considerably — this is not a general manufacturing role, and the employer is likely prioritizing hands-on familiarity with packaging lines, materials, and quality standards over broader industrial exposure. The engineering degree requirement confirms they want a leader who can read a machine, not just a spreadsheet.
How to Approach This Application
Your application should lead with the packaging-specific experience — name the lines, products, or materials you have managed, and quantify output or efficiency gains where possible. Because KD Investment is a group with varied interests, show that you can operate within a structured corporate hierarchy while still being the person who walks the floor daily. The walk-in registration process with physical documents suggests a traditional HR approach; bring organized, complete paperwork and be prepared for a formal, in-person evaluation.
Who This Role Suits
Best suited to a packaging production supervisor or line manager with 8+ years who is ready to step into a head-of-production role. Given the mandatory packaging requirement and seniority level, the applicant pool will be narrow — qualified candidates face limited competition.
