Job Description

Production Manager

Birmingham

£50,000 + Discretionary bonus

Monday - Friday

This isn t a Production Manager job for someone who wants to sit in an office moving coloured boxes around on Excel.

This is for someone who thrives when the goalposts move. Because they do here. Often.

You ll be in a business that changes direction quickly. Which means one day you ll be sorting out staffing headaches, the next you ll be working out how to improve line efficiency, and the day after that you ll be helping the Ops Director plan for growth.

If that level of variety excites you, keep reading. If it terrifies you, stop now.

Your team will look to you for answers. Sometimes you won t have them. But you ll be good enough with people to work it out together. You ll coach, develop, and stretch them so they don t just hit today s targets they re ready for tomorrow s as well.

Continuous Improvement isn t a slogan here. It s the oxygen. Things will only get better if you make them better. So, if you ve led CI projects that stuck, not just ones that looked good on PowerPoint, you ll be in demand.

This role isn t narrow. You ll touch lots of areas in the factory. You ll be versatile. And you ll be trusted to make a dent.

What s in it for you?

This is a business in serious growth mode. They ve invested heavily in the factory, added new product lines, and this is your chance to make an impact while growing alongside the business.

If you ve already managed teams in a fast-paced food or drinks manufacturing environment, have a track record of developing teams, driving improvements and you re itching to do more than just keep the wheels turning, you should probably apply.
