JOB DESCRIPTION
Abbott's Diabetes Care business designs, develops and manufactures leading-edge glucose monitoring systems and test strips for use in both home and hospital settings, and we have recently launched a new system that will revolutionise how people with diabetes around the world monitor their glucose levels. We are passionate about doing work that improves the quality of people’s lives.
We currently have an exciting opportunity for a Shift Lead to join our Sensor Manufacturing team. Developing, leading and motivating your team, you will ensure quality, yield and output deliverables, maintain and champion EHS initiatives, and drive 5s and process improvements.

You will support the daily walk-around activities, interacting with quality, engineering, and other relevant support functions as required.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
To be successful, you will bring experience of and be passionate about leading teams and delivering results. You will bring exemplary communication, organisation and time management skills. Previous experience of working in a laboratory or manufacturing environment is preferred (including experience of GLP and GMP), but consideration will be given to those with other practical based backgrounds. You will also be educated to secondary level.
You should be excited about working in a fast-paced environment within a hard-working and welcoming team. This is a shift working role on a 4 on 4 off basis, working 7am to 7pm day shift.
In addition to a competitive salary, Abbott offers a highly attractive benefits package which includes a defined-contribution pension scheme, a share ownership scheme, private healthcare, life assurance, and a flexible benefits scheme which you can tailor to your own requirements. Here at Witney, we also like to help our employees live life to the fullest, and therefore we offer a range of optional initiatives for you to get involved in, including onsite allotments, couch to 5k campaigns, bee keeping, yoga and more!
