Yolk Recruitment are supporting a growing manufacturing business with the recruitment of a Production Supervisor to join their production operation. This is a hands-on Production Supervisor role working Monday to Friday on a two-shift pattern of 6:00am-2:00pm and 2:00pm-10:00pm, managing a team of production staff across secondary production lines.
