Mould Production Manager (Precast Concrete Manufacturing)

About Us

Civilcast is an Australian-owned, fast growing precast concrete manufacturer and our mould fleet is the engine room of everything we build. We're after a Mechanical Engineer who wants real ownership: new mould builds end-to-end, fleet maintenance, and a workshop team you'll lead and grow.

The Role

The role owns new build mould management, delivering new moulds in line with the mould production schedule and covers the full new build process end to end including: procurement of moulds from external suppliers and raw materials, quality assurance of the finished mould, and delivery to site ready for production.

You'll work closely with Production, Engineering and Quality to keep moulds available, safe and dimensionally spot-on — because mould downtime is the one thing that slows us down and is critical to Civilcast's Fast Lead Times and Large Stocks uniques!

What You'll Own

• End-to-end new mould builds — supplier procurement through to QA sign-off and delivery to the line;

• Preventative maintenance, repair and lifecycle management of the entire steel mould fleet;

• A fitting/fabrication team you'll lead, develop and hold to a high standard.

What You'll Bring

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering (essential);

• Hands-on experience with steel moulds, formwork or fixtures — precast, foundry or heavy fabrication background ideal;

• CAD proficiency (SolidWorks, Inventor or AutoCAD) and confidence leading a trade team;

• Strong stakeholder management and leadership across a dispersed team;

• A "say it straight" communicator who reports up early and doesn't sit on problems.

Why Civilcast

• Real ownership, not red tape — you'll run new mould builds start to finish and call the shots on fleet maintenance priorities.

• Back your team, grow your trade — lead a workshop crew and build their skills, not just their task list.

• Work that matters — your mould fleet directly powers Civilcast's fast lead times and production capacity.
