Plastic Injection Moulded Medical Devices

Medical Device Manufacturing continues to remain an active sector for science jobs recruiting. Current demand seems to be developing for Manufacturing Engineers, Production Managers and QA/RA Engineers.

In particular multinational employers are seeking candidates with experience of injection moulding manufacturing operations involving  medical device products. However prospective candidates with injection moulding experience  are not limited to the healthcare industry and can come from the automotive sector for instance where innovative technical moulding solutions are in demand for customers demanding precision and high quality end products.

A typical Production Manager in demand today may be educated to degree level or hold an equivalent engineering discipline qualification and be experience as a production/manufacturing manager in plastics moulding operations. Ideally those operations that involve carrying out custom moulding for the medical device, healthcare or automotive sectors. Production/Manufacturing Managers also tend to have excellent planning, problem solving, leadership and people management skills.

Given the current market it appears these skills will be in demand despite the downturn witnessed in other sectors and it is a positive indicator that perhaps there are prospects yet for those seeking science jobs in Ireland today.
