Working in a factory can be more than just a job if you join the right team. You can have a career with Bakkavor and get a taste for success.
The Role:
The Production and Leadership team is vital to our business. Not everything can be done by machinery and that’s where YOU come in! As our business’ key selling point is handcrafted products it is essential that we have hard working committed people working within our team.
The typical day of a Line Leader involves working in a small team to all achieve a common goal working closely with the Team Leaders and the Production team to achieve the best we can and supply the customer with what the standard of product they require.
We manufacture lots of different products within the business; we make over a diverse range of products so there is lots of variety.
As a Line Leader you will be responsible for leading a line of production operatives and overseeing the operation of machines, production lines, production areas, ensuring the production lines are operating efficiently.
You must cooperate with the business in their objective to positively impact the environment and follow established environmental procedures when performing tasks and using equipment and materials.
You will be a leader, team player, resilient and will be able to adapt to a factory environment as it can be busy, pressured, cold and wet. Your safety is our priority and to ensure this we will provide you with training and the relevant personal protective equipment.
There is a real chance of progression within the business for a self-driven individual or for the people not so ambitious it provides a base and job security for people happy to stay on the line.
It’s a platform to build a solid work history from a large multinational company who pride themselves on giving people a chance to reach their potential.
We require all applicants to have a basic understanding of English Literacy and Numeracy (ESOL2)
