Leading and developing a team of Senior Production Managers and Production Managers.
Driving operational performance across safety, quality, delivery, cost and efficiency.
Managing labour planning, productivity, yields and operational costs.
Embedding a culture of continuous improvement and accountability.
Working closely with Engineering, Technical, Planning and Supply Chain to deliver business objectives.
Leading operational readiness for customer and external audits.
Developing people, succession plans and future leaders across the operation.
What I'm looking for
Previous experience as an Operations Manager within food manufacturing.
Alternatively, a highly experienced Senior Production Manager ready for the next step.
Strong leadership experience within a fast-paced FMCG environment.
A proven track record of improving KPIs, productivity, quality and operational performance.
Experience leading large teams through multiple layers of management.
A hands-on leader who enjoys being visible on the factory floor.
What's in it for you?
