Senior Production Supervisor – Chilled High-Risk Food Manufacturing | Northwich| £38,000 - £40,000 + Benefits
Are you a Senior Production Supervisor in food manufacturing who’s ready for a role with more challenge, more control – and a team that actually has your back?
You’ve probably done the firefighting.
You’ve probably had the promises of development.
You’ve probably stuck around longer than you should have, hoping things might improve.
But what if this Senior Production Supervisor role actually offered you a step forward — not just more of the same?
This isn’t a business coasting along. The site is growing fast – new business, new lines, and more volume than ever before. It’s a 24/7 chilled high-risk food manufacturing operation with over 900 staff, and they’re looking for confident, capable leaders to step in and take charge of production performance.
You’ll lead teams of up to 50 on shift, working with Line Leaders, Technical, Engineering and Ops to keep things moving. It’s fast. It’s hands-on. And it’s packed with progression potential – promotions and secondments are happening here, not just being talked about.
