Creating a Strong Safety & Quality Culture * Championing a proactive safety culture across the department. * Ensuring processes and standards remain audit-ready at all times. * Reinforcing quality ownership across the entire team. What They're Looking For This role would suit someone who enjoys being close to the action in a fast-paced manufacturing environment and takes real satisfaction in building strong teams. You might currently be working as a: * Production Manager * Manufacturing Manager * Shift Manager * Senior Supervisor ready for the next step Experience we're looking for: * Strong background within food manufacturing * Experience leading teams in high-volume production environments * A track record of improving operational performance * Understanding of manufacturing KPIs, labour efficiency and continuous improvement The Kind of Person Who Thrives Here The people who succeed in this business tend to be: * Hands-on leaders who enjoy spending time on the factory floor * Calm and pragmatic problem solvers * Naturally collaborative with other departments * Focused on developing their teams, not just managing them * Positive, resilient and action-oriented Above all, they take pride in building an environment where people feel supported, standards are high and improvements are always being explored.
