About the Role
We are currently seeking a hands-on Production Supervisor to join a busy manufacturing operation on a permanent basis. This is a highly visible, shop-floor leadership role where you will be responsible for ensuring operational standards are maintained across either day or night shifts within a fast-paced, heavy industrial environment. The site operates across multiple units, where you will play a key role in stabilising supervision across shifts and ensuring consistency.
Key Responsibilities
Lead and manage day-to-day operations across assigned shift pattern
Maintain high standards of health & safety, including strict PPE compliance
Be visible and present on the shop floor at all times
Monitor output quality and ensure correct product specification is consistently met
Manage labour allocation and balancing across production units
Work to production schedules created by the Factory Manager and ensure delivery
Conduct inductions, site tours, absence management, and return-to-work processes
Use HR system to manage attendance and sickness records
Address performance and behavioural issues confidently, fairly, and professionally
Escalate issues when necessary and have difficult conversations where required
Support a culture of accountability, respect, and high standards
What We’re Looking For
We are looking for strong, confident supervisors who can lead from the front.
Ideal candidates will have:
Experience supervising within a manufacturing or production environment
Confidence working independently (especially on night shift)
Strong leadership presence with the ability to challenge poor behaviour appropriately
A “firm but fair” management style
Willingness to be highly hands-on and physically present on the shop floor
Ability to manage competing priorities and keep production running smoothly
Strong communication and people management skills
This is not a desk-based supervisory role - you will be expected to be visible, active, and engaged across all areas of production.
Working Pattern & Culture
The business operates Monday to Thursday on 12-hour shifts (24-hour production cycle).
Night shift can be particularly autonomous, so confidence in managing without constant supervision is essential.
The culture is supportive but performance-driven - standards matter, and supervisors are expected to uphold them consistently and professionally.
Overtime:
Available as required, typically Fridays
Paid at increased weekend shift allowance
Why Join?
This is an opportunity to step into a key leadership role within a busy, essential manufacturing operation where your decisions will directly impact output, quality, and team performance across both day and night shifts.
If you are confident, resilient, and able to lead people effectively in a hands-on environment, this role offers strong autonomy, variety, and the chance to make a real operational impact
