About The Role
Assistant Team Leader – Primary Pack (Red Days)
We’re looking for a hands-on Assistant Team Leader to support the smooth running of our manufacturing operations. This is a dynamic role where you’ll combine leadership with practical involvement, working alongside your team on the production floor while helping drive performance, quality, and continuous improvement.
Within this area, you’ll oversee key stages of the manufacturing and inspection process, including product inspection, labelling, sterilisation, and injector assembly. Attention to detail and adherence to GMP and cleanroom standards are essential to ensure products meet the highest quality standards before progressing through production.
You’ll act as a key support to the Team Leader, stepping in to oversee operations when needed, guiding team members, and ensuring production targets are met safely and efficiently.
