Job Description:

Production Manager 55,000 Lincolnshire Some people think “Production Manager” means sitting in an office telling other people what to do. They don’t last long. This role is about running a food factory area properly. That means:

  • Making sure production targets are hit without cutting corners.
  • Keeping audits and standards tight, so the technical team don’t have kittens.
  • Planning labour (yes, that includes agency staff) so the numbers add up.
  • Leading your team – coaching, motivating, and occasionally having the tough conversations.
  • Spotting ways to make things run smoother, faster, cheaper.

It’s a day shift role, which means no more night shifts wrecking your social life. But it’s still full-on – this is food manufacturing, and things move quickly. What you’ll need:

  • Experience managing in food production.
  • A track record of getting results through people.
  • Strong technical knowledge and a grasp of compliance.
  • Food Safety and IOSH qualifications would be a big plus.

What’s in it for you? A 55k salary, a permanent days-only shift pattern, and the chance to make a proper impact in a business that’s growing and investing in its sites. If you’re the kind of manager who wants a safe, easy ride – this isn’t it. If you want to actually lead, improve, and deliver results, then it’s worth a chat.
