Are you an inspiring Production or Operations leader ready to take ownership of a fast-paced manufacturing operation? Do you thrive in a hands-on environment where your ideas, leadership and drive genuinely shape the performance of a site? If you're looking for a role that gives you the autonomy to lead, the support to grow and the opportunity to make a lasting mark, this could be your next step. What You'll Be Doing You'll lead a talented team of Shift Managers and technical specialists, but you'll also be the one who brings people and processes together. Your mission? Keep everything moving smoothly, safely and at a high standard. Here's what your days could involve: Growing and empowering your team - coaching, encouraging and developing individuals so they feel confident and capable in their roles. Leading with curiosity - spotting opportunities to improve efficiency, flow, quality and waste reduction, and helping your team turn ideas into action. Creating strong connections - partnering closely with Planning, Quality, Maintenance and Engineering to keep production steady and communication clear. Being proactive on maintenance - working with Engineering to plan preventive work and protect valuable uptime. Building better processes - auditing what we do today, shaping what we should do tomorrow, and bringing your team with you through training and new ways of working. Championing Health & Safety - leading by example, keeping standards high and ensuring everyone feels looked after. Taking ownership of performance - managing budgets, reviewing KPIs and driving improvements with confidence and clarity. What You Bring We're looking for a natural collaborator - someone who builds trust easily, communicates well and enjoys being part of a team that wins together. This role will suit someone who likes to be out on the floor, doesn't shy away from a challenge, and genuinely cares about people. You'll shine in this role if you have: Experience in FMCG or fast-paced manufacturing - ideally a couple years in a leadership position. A warm leadership style - you're approachable, supportive and positive, with a knack for bringing out the best in others. A problem-solver's mindset - analytical, curious and ready to explore new ways of working. A self-starting attitude - you plan ahead, stay organised and take pride in doing things well. A passion for improvement - whether it's processes, systems or people. Great communication skills - the kind that make people feel heard and motivated. A leadership qualification (such as ILM Level 5) is a welcome bonus but not essential. Why This Role Matters This isn't just a leadership role - it's a chance to build something. To shape a culture. To make a team stronger. And to grow your own career in a business that values fresh thinking and encourages progression. If you're a Production Manager, Operations Manager or Manufacturing Manager ready to take the next step, it'd be great to talk!
