Job Description
Production Team Leader – Food Manufacturing
Let’s be honest — some “Team Leader” jobs are really just glorified admin roles with a hi-vis.
This isn’t one of those.
You’ll be running a production line that actually produces things people eat. That means quality, pace, and standards matter — because mistakes here don’t just cost money, they end up on someone’s dinner plate.
You’ll lead a team of operators who look to you to set the tone. Not by shouting, but by showing. If you’re the type who hides in the office when things go wrong, this isn’t going to work out.
But if you get a buzz from being in the thick of it — solving problems, coaching people, keeping the wheels turning — you’ll fit right in.
You’ll be measured on things like waste, output, and quality. The usual stuff. But more importantly, you’ll be judged on whether your line runs better because you’re leading it — not just because you’re standing there when it does.
You’ll need:
Supervisory experience — ideally from a food manufacturing background.
The ability to stay calm and organised when production targets start looking more like wishful thinking.
A sharp eye for detail (because labels, weights, and hygiene checks aren’t suggestions).
And enough confidence to hold your own with production managers, QA, and the rest of the factory floor.
If you’ve worked with fresh produce or short-shelf-life products, even better. You’ll already know how to keep things moving without compromising standards.
This role suits someone ambitious — the kind of person who’s already running a line but wants more ownership, more challenge, and a bit more say in how things are done.
Shift patterns and pay? We’ll cover that when we talk — but it’s fair for the level and backed by a business that genuinely invests in developing its leaders.
