The posting

Change people’s lives and love what you do! Cochlear develops world-leading medical devices that help people hear. As a top 100 medical device company and market-leader in implantable hearing devices, more people choose a Cochlear-branded cochlear implant system than any other. Our employees tell us that the number one reason they enjoy working for Cochlear is the opportunity to make a difference to people’s lives.

Change people’s lives and love what you do

Cochlear develops world-leading hearing solutions that help people hear and be heard. We are now looking for an experienced operations leader to lead our Manufacturing and Logistics Operations teams in Gothenburg.

As Manager, CGS Manufacturing & Logistics Operations, you will bring two important operational areas together around clear goals, strong collaboration and a shared commitment to safety, quality, delivery and continuous improvement. This is an opportunity for a people-focused leader who enjoys developing teams while building effective, reliable and scalable operations.

The opportunity

You will lead the operative Manufacturing and Logistics teams and ensure quality products are delivered safely, to specification and on schedule, while maintaining the quality and regulatory standards expected in a medical-device environment.

You will provide clear leadership across the teams, establish effective ways of working and create clarity around goals, responsibilities and priorities. Alongside daily operational leadership, you will strengthen processes and capabilities for the future, support operational and equipment improvements, lead change effectively and build a proactive continuous-improvement culture. The team you will lead is in total 15 persons divided by 7 in production and 8 in logistics.

You will also collaborate with colleagues across our Global Supply Chain network and distribution hubs, connecting local operational priorities with the wider global organisation.

Key responsibilities

  • Lead and develop the Manufacturing and Logistics Operations teams, with a strong focus on people, safety, quality and delivery.
  • Establish clear goals, responsibilities, priorities and an effective operating cadence across Manufacturing and Logistics.
  • Ensure products are delivered to specification and schedule while maintaining quality and regulatory compliance.
  • Develop and stabilise processes and support equipment requirements, operational improvements and change implementation.
  • Drive structured continuous improvement using Lean and Six Sigma principles.
  • Develop team capability through coaching, clear accountability and opportunities for growth.
  • Manage operational priorities, budgets and cost performance across Direct Manufacturing and Logistics Operations.
  • Build strong collaboration across Manufacturing, Logistics, Global Supply Chain sites and distribution hubs.
  • Lead change while maintaining operational continuity, quality and compliance.

About you

You are an experienced and supportive operations leader who combines a strong delivery mindset with the ability to develop people and improve how work gets done. You are comfortable balancing daily operational delivery with continuous improvement, change and longer-term capability development.

To be successful in this role, you will bring:

  • At least five years of people-management experience within manufacturing and/or logistics operations.
  • Experience leading teams responsible for delivering quality products to specification and schedule.
  • Strong knowledge of manufacturing and/or logistics operations management.
  • Practical experience applying Lean, Six Sigma or structured continuous-improvement methodologies.
  • Experience leading operational change while protecting quality, compliance and delivery.
  • Experience managing budgets, competing priorities, conflict and capability development.
  • Understanding of operational planning, process and equipment requirements and change control.
  • The ability to create accountability, build effective teams, develop talent and make sound operational decisions.

Knowledge of medical-device Quality Management Systems, ISO 13485 and GMP requirements will be highly relevant to the role.

Why join Cochlear?

This is more than an opportunity to manage an established operation. You will help shape a newly combined Manufacturing and Logistics organisation, strengthen collaboration and develop the capability needed for the future.

You will work in an environment where quality, continuous improvement, coaching and accountability matter, while contributing to products that help people around the world hear and live full lives.

If you are motivated by developing people, improving operational performance and taking responsibility for quality and delivery in a highly regulated environment, we would welcome your application.

Apply now and help us make a difference to people’s lives.
