Infinite Talent is thrilled to be partnering with a fast-growing fresh food manufacturer that's redefining excellence.
We're on the hunt for a visionary Manufacturing Director to lead the Production Management Team with daily manufacturing plans safely, efficiently, and in full within a high-volume, short shelf-life manufacturing operation.
What You'll Be Doing

- This is a hands-on, factory-floor-based role, requiring a strong daily presence within production, engineering, and warehouse areas.
- The role leads manufacturing execution through visibility, real-time decision-making, and direct engagement with teams, rather than desk-based management.
What You Bring

- Hands-on, visible leadership, leading production, engineering, and low-risk (storage, goods in/out).
- Track record of shop-floor performance improvement, including waste, downtime, and labour efficiency.
