Production Team Leader

Production Team Leader – Food Manufacturing

Join a business that’s growing — and grow your career with it.

If you’re ready to take your management career seriously, this is the step up you’ve been waiting for.
This isn’t a box-ticking Team Leader role. This is your chance to join a financially strong, well-run business with big growth plans for the next three years — and they want people who are excited to grow with them.

Here, you won’t just run a line. You’ll develop real leadership skills, backed by a management team that invests in you. Think structured development pathways, accredited management courses, and a support network that actually supports you. When you progress, they celebrate it — because that’s exactly what they’re aiming for as the business scales.


What you’ll be doing

  • Leading a production line to deliver high performance across quality, efficiency, and output.

  • Coaching and developing your team with the support of experienced managers and proven training programmes.

  • Keeping standards tight — safety, hygiene, and accuracy are essential and you’ll be setting the tone.

  • Working closely with Production, QA, and wider management to keep everything running smoothly day to day.

  • Playing a key role in shaping future processes as the business continues to invest and expand.


What we’re looking for

  • Experience as a Line Leader, Supervisor, or similar within manufacturing — ideally food.

  • A calm, organised approach when things get challenging.

  • Strong attention to detail, from weights and labels to hygiene and paperwork.

  • Someone who communicates well, takes ownership, and leads by example.

  • Experience with fresh or short shelf-life products would be a real advantage.


Why join?

Because this is a business that’s going places — and taking its people with it.

You’ll be joining at a time of financial strength and operational stability, with exciting growth plans you’ll get to be part of. That means clear career progression, access to industry-recognised management training, and a supportive leadership team that wants you to succeed.

You’ll get real autonomy, real responsibility, and the opportunity to build a management career in a place that genuinely invests in its leaders.

The pay and shifts are competitive and reflect the level of responsibility — we’ll talk through the details when we speak.
