Job Description

Some roles keep things ticking over.
This one defines how an operation performs.

HRC Recruitment are proud to be partnering with Tennent's to appoint a Packaging Manager at Wellpark Brewery, a site that has been at the heart of Scottish brewing for over 450 years.

This isn’t just a leadership role within packaging. It’s a position that sits at the centre of site performance, where what happens on your watch is visible across the entire business.

You’ll take ownership of a large, complex operation spanning canning, bottling, kegging, and warehousing, leading through a team of experienced managers, with overall responsibility for more than 75 people. But this isn’t about being close to the lines. It’s about setting direction, creating clarity, and building a structure that delivers consistently.

As part of the Site Leadership Team, you’ll work closely with Brewing, Engineering, Quality, and Planning. Your voice will carry weight, not just in how packaging performs, but in how the site continues to evolve.

At its core, this role is about building something that works - and keeps working.

You’ll shape a culture where safety is a given, not a target. Where quality is protected without compromise. Where performance is understood, measured, and continuously improved. And where people know what’s expected of them - and are supported to deliver it.

There are, of course, fundamentals you’ll own:

  * Setting the standard across safety, quality, cost, and delivery

  * Using data to drive efficiency, reduce losses, and improve output

  * Developing a strong leadership team that can operate with autonomy

  * Embedding continuous improvement and supporting ongoing investment across the site

But the real impact comes from how you lead, and what you build around you.

This role suits someone who is already comfortable operating at senior level within a fast-paced manufacturing environment. Someone who knows how to lead through others, who can balance short-term delivery with long-term improvement, and who brings both credibility and presence to a leadership team.

You’ll understand packaging operations, high-speed production, and the realities of managing performance and people at scale. More importantly, you’ll know how to turn that understanding into results.

In return, you’ll step into a senior leadership role within one of the UK’s most recognised brewing brands, with a competitive package and the opportunity to shape a critical part of the operation.

Because at Tennent's, this isn’t just about maintaining standards.

It’s about raising them
