Production Shift Manager

Production Shift Lead
Location: Cambridgeshire
Salary: Up to £50,000

Fancy running your own shift like it''s your own business?

This is a genuine opportunity to take full ownership of a production area within a fast-growing, global food manufacturer — someone who wants accountability, not just a job title.

You''ll be the driving force behind your shift: keeping product flowing efficiently, hitting customer spec every time, and leading a team that looks to you for direction. It''s hands-on leadership — coaching, managing performance, solving problems on the floor — combined with the freedom to bring your own continuous improvement ideas to the table in a business that''s genuinely growing.

Working a Monday to Friday role with no weekends, you''ll join a business with a serious international footprint. The day-to-day feel is anything but corporate. Expect real career development, the chance to work across borders if that interests you, and a culture that backs people who want to improve how things are done.

What you''ll need:

• A Continuous Improvement qualification
• IOSH
• HACCP
• ILM Level 3
• Experience with an ERP system
• Confident with Microsoft Office packages
• Strong leadership and coaching skills, with the ability to manage performance
• A data-driven approach to improving quality and efficiency
• The resilience to stay organised and deliver under pressure
• Full right to work in the UK (sponsorship isn''t available for this role)

If you''re someone who wants real ownership of a shift, not just a role on it, this is worth a conversation. Please contact Tom Fitzjohn for more information.
