About Sunseeker International


Sunseeker founders dreamt of building a new kind of yacht. Breaking boundaries in early design, we’ve revolutionised the motor yacht industry since our conception in 1967. We've always set our sights on the top of the ladder, using our passion and drive to trailblaze with innovation and energy.


Technical and design excellence is fundamental to the very fabric of being a leading yacht manufacturer. Company record-breaking new product development investments will double the Sunseeker range to 22 models by the end of 2023.

Are you a Sunseeker Production Manager?

Expert hands and extraordinary attention to detail. Passed from generation to generation, these are the most valuable skills required to make a Sunseeker.
In an era of digital production and automated assembly, we stay committed to creating hand-built, hand-finished boats. With a workforce of c.2000 Team Members, the hustle and bustle of our Shipyards and workforce creates a place like no other. With long serving employees and over 150 apprentices in training, our Sunseeker family gives a true reflection of our local community.


Now, we look to welcome a new Production Manager to lead the Manhattan 68 team at the world renowned Sunseeker Shipyards in Poole, Dorset.
As a natural leader, your motivational presence and influential communication will unlock the true potential of your team. As their Production Manager, you will lead your team to achieve key performance indicators in safety, quality, hours, defects, warranty claims, and budgets, among others. You'll need to find a healthy balance between approachability and assertiveness, making decisions in line with production schedules to increase pace, quality, and reduce waste, in a mission to support the business in our long term objectives.


We are seeking an individual who possesses a strong knowledge of all elements of boatbuilding, ideally with a skillset and experiences to support this. The successful candidate will have proven experience as a successful leader, influencing positive change and delivering strategic performance against flexible requirements. Your application will be strengthened by additional experience in HR or Finance projects, SAP and working to KPIs.


To get ahead of the rest, you can meet the Manhattan 68 here.
