Your Role at Baxter

This is where we make life-saving products

You have deep knowledge of and experience with manufacturing processes. You understand the importance of building relationships, establishing order, and maintaining clear communication channels. As a Operations Manager, you are a leader who is willing to listen and inspire others by your actions. You also appreciate the stability of a large multinational company with a long history of growth and success. Your team is an extension of your family, and you know how to support them as individuals while helping them achieve results as a team.

Your role as a Operations Manager positions you to be directly involved in the physical production that enables Baxter to fulfill our mission to save and sustain lives. You run the line between meeting production timelines and making quality products. As a manager, you are the trusted critical connection between the business and the workers on the floor.

Your Team

Baxter is focused on saving and sustaining lives by finding solutions to complex problems. Each day, the manufacturing team strives to create quality products for our customers—and are sometimes met with unforeseen issues to tackle. The high-caliber talent at Baxter meets these challenges head-on, as a team, to create products with the customer's needs top-of-mind.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Brand-new department. Groundbreaking technology. A chance to shape the future.

We’re making a major investment in innovation: launching a pioneering, purpose-built compounding department in Thetford.

  • Capacity planning and resource optimization
  • Continuous improvement projects (Lean, Six Sigma)
  • Budget and financial performance
  • Building a strong, high-performing team from the ground up

What you'll bring

  • Leadership experience in pharmaceuticals, medical devices or FMCG (GMP is a must!)
  • Passion for process improvement and operational excellence
  • A leader able to motivate and drive a team
  • Financial acumen and strong analytical mindset
  • A team-first mentality and the vision to make things happen under tight deadlines
