Salary:
- £35,000 to £42,000

- Taking full ownership of day to day production across a team of 10, including shift leaders, operators and quality control staff
- Leading, coaching and developing the team to build a high performing, engaged production operation
- Managing production planning to ensure output, quality and efficiency targets are consistently met
- Overseeing process standards to ensure consistent product quality
- Monitoring key performance indicators including productivity, downtime, scrap and cost, and driving improvement where required
- Working closely with the maintenance team to maximise equipment reliability and minimise downtime
- Ensuring full compliance with health, safety and environmental standards across the department
- Driving a culture of continuous improvement across the site
