Production Manager

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
