• Training new starters and developing the skills of existing team members
• Investigating and reporting incidents, accidents, and non-conformities
• Communicating company goals and performance expectations clearly across the team
• Identifying and implementing cost-saving and continuous improvement opportunities

We’re keen to speak to Production Team Leaders with the below skills & experience:

• Previous leadership or supervisory experience in a high volume manufacturing environment
• Knowledge of lean manufacturing techniques and quality standards
• Familiarity with injection moulding would be beneficial
• Confident IT skills including Word, Excel, and SAP
