Picture this. You walk onto the factory floor. The hum of production is steady, the team is motivated, and everything is running smoothly. Why? Because of the culture of safety, teamwork, and efficiency that you have helped to build. This isn't just another shift manager role. It's a chance to take ownership, lead a team of Operators and Engineers, and make a lasting impact in a business that believes in continuous improvement and developing its people. Our client, a well-established food manufacturer in Suffolk, is looking for a hands-on Shift Operations Manager. Someone who isn't afraid to roll up their sleeves, lead from the front, and inspire their team to deliver excellence shift after shift. What you'll be doing? You'll be the heartbeat of your shift - the person your team looks to for direction, motivation, and support. You'll ensure production targets are hit, equipment runs reliably, and above all, that safety and quality are never compromised. But this role isn't just about keeping things ticking over. It's about making things better. You'll be trusted to spot opportunities to reduce waste, improve efficiency, and coach your team to grow. From leading incident response to championing new ideas, you'll be at the centre of operations - empowered to make a difference. You'll set the tone for safety - ensuring everyone goes home as safe as they arrived, every single day. You'll drive performance, making sure production targets are hit without compromising on quality or efficiency. You'll be there when challenges arise - calmly leading incident responses and making smart, fast decisions. You'll support and develop your people, from seasoned operators to ambitious apprentices, helping them to grow and progress in their own careers. You'll never stop looking for ways to improve - whether that's cutting waste, boosting reliability, or introducing new ways of working. What makes you a great fit? You're a natural leader - approachable, decisive, and passionate about getting the best out of people. You've worked in manufacturing before (food or FMCG would be even better) and you know what it takes to run a shift that's safe, efficient, and productive. You thrive on responsibility. You're comfortable balancing the day-to-day with the bigger picture, and you know how to keep your team focused and motivated, even under pressure. If you've got experience with Lean or continuous improvement, even better - but your attitude, energy, and leadership style are what will set you apart. Why join? Because this isn't just a job. It's the next step in a career. You'll be joining a respected and successful manufacturer with strong values. You'll be supported in your own development and progression. You'll have the chance to shape and grow your team - and see the results of your leadership every single day. And you'll know that when your shift is over, you've made a real impact. We're looking to speak with those with experience in a food or drinks manufacturing setting - whether you've worked at: Shift Manager, Shift Leader, Production Manager or Production Supervisor level, if you've demonstrated resilience and an appreciation for continuous improvement, we'd be open for a chat. SHIFTS: Monday to Friday (rotating) If you're ready to lead from the front and want to build a career in a business that values its people as much as its products, this could be the role for you.
