Operations Manager

Penang Mainland & Kedah | Bukit Mertajam / Perai

We are a growing manpower solutions company supporting manufacturing clients across Penang and Kedah.

We are looking for a strong, hands-on Operations Manager to take ownership of our day-to-day manpower operations across the region.

This is not a desk-bound HR role.

You will be responsible for making sure our operations run smoothly — from worker deployment and attendance to client satisfaction, employee issues, recruitment coordination and operational problem-solving.

The ideal candidate is someone who enjoys taking ownership, solving problems and leading people. You should be comfortable making decisions, dealing with factory clients and handling operational issues without needing to be told what to do at every step.

What You Will Own1. Manpower Operations

• Oversee the day-to-day operations of workers deployed to client sites across Penang Mainland and Kedah.
• Monitor attendance, absenteeism, turnover, discipline and worker welfare.
• Ensure manpower requirements are fulfilled within agreed timelines.
• Coordinate worker replacement and deployment.
• Resolve operational issues quickly and effectively.
• Conduct regular site visits and maintain close contact with workers and client representatives.

2. Client Management

• Act as the main operational contact for assigned clients.
• Build strong working relationships with HR, supervisors and management teams.
• Understand client manpower requirements and operational challenges.
• Handle complaints and escalations professionally.
• Ensure clients receive consistent and reliable service.
• Identify opportunities to improve service quality and expand existing accounts.

3. Recruitment & Deployment

• Work closely with the recruitment team to ensure vacancies are filled.
• Monitor recruitment pipelines and deployment targets.
• Identify bottlenecks affecting hiring and deployment.
• Ensure workers are properly briefed and prepared before deployment.
• Work with recruitment to maintain sufficient manpower pipelines for key clients.

4. Team Leadership

• Lead and manage the operations team.
• Set clear targets, responsibilities and KPIs.
• Coach team members and hold them accountable for results.
• Improve operational processes and implement SOPs.
• Build a team that can solve problems without constantly escalating to management.

5. Problem Solving & Continuous Improvement

You will be expected to identify problems before they become major issues.

For example:

High absenteeism → Find the cause → Create a solution → Implement → Measure the result.

Client short of workers → Coordinate recruitment → Prioritise deployment → Communicate with client → Close the gap.

High worker turnover → Analyse the reason → Work with the team → Improve retention.

We want someone who doesn't simply report problems.

We want someone who solves them.

What We Are Looking ForMust Have

• 5+ years of experience in manpower supply, recruitment, outsourcing, factory HR or workforce operations.
• Experience managing a large workforce is highly preferred.
• Strong experience dealing with manufacturing/factory clients.
• Strong leadership and people-management skills.
• Excellent communication and problem-solving ability.
• Able to work independently and make decisions.
• Willing to travel between Penang Mainland and Kedah.
• Possess a valid driving licence and own transportation.
• Comfortable handling difficult conversations with both clients and workers.

Strong Advantage

• Experience managing 300+ workers.
• Existing experience working with factories in Penang/Kedah.
• Experience in manpower outsourcing or recruitment agencies.
• Able to communicate in Bahasa Malaysia, English and Mandarin.
• Existing network within the manufacturing sector.
• Experience managing supervisors, recruiters or site coordinators.
• Strong understanding of attendance, worker retention and manpower deployment.

The Person We Want

You may be a good fit if you are currently a:

Senior Operations Executive
Assistant Operations Manager
Operations Manager
Senior HR Executive
Factory HR Manager
Manpower Operations Manager

But your job title is less important to us than your ability to own results.

We are looking for someone who:

• Doesn't wait to be told what to do.
• Can handle pressure without falling apart.
• Can speak confidently with factory management.
• Can manage workers firmly but fairly.
• Can make decisions.
• Takes responsibility when things go wrong.
• Doesn't constantly say, "This is not my job."
• Sees a problem and thinks, "How do I fix this?"

Your KPIs

You will be measured by results, including:

• Manpower fulfilment rate
• Worker attendance
• Worker retention
• Replacement rate
• Client satisfaction
• Client complaints
• Deployment turnaround time
• Recruitment-to-deployment conversion
• Operational efficiency
• Performance of the operations team

What We Offer

RM6,000 – RM8,000 monthly package, depending on experience and capability.

• Performance-based incentive
• Petrol / travel allowance
• Mobile allowance
• Annual bonus
• Career progression
• High level of autonomy
• Direct exposure to senior management
• Opportunity to grow with a rapidly expanding manpower business

Most importantly, you will have real ownership of the region, not just a job title.

If you perform, your responsibility and earning potential will grow with the business.

Why This Role Is Different

We are not looking for someone to simply maintain the existing operation.

We are growing.

You will be joining at a stage where there is an opportunity to build systems, develop the operations team and help us scale the business across Penang and Kedah.

If you want a comfortable 9-to-5 job where someone tells you exactly what to do, this probably isn't for you.

If you want to build something, lead people and have a meaningful impact on a growing business, we'd like to hear from you.
