Description

Your journey with Northwood Hygiene Products starts right here, and we've already invested in you!

We proudly run state-of-the-art machinery, providing our people with the tools to produce unparalleled, market-disrupting paper hygiene and wiping products.

If you're technically and mechanically minded, and ready to play a key "roll" in producing high-quality paper products, join our talented production team.

About the RoleIn this full time Machine Operator role, you will ensure the smooth operation of our paper converting machines, performing checks and ensuring quality meets specifications.

You will work a 4 on 4 off, 12-hour shift pattern of both days (06:00-18:00) and nights (18:00-06:00).

Periodically, you will need to make minor adjustments to ensure accuracy, referring to your job cards and complete documentation correctly.

To ensure zero harm, you will need to conduct pre-use lifting and equipment guarding checks, maintain housekeeping standards, and submit monthly safety observations.

We are passionate about continuous improvement, and it is crucial that our colleagues seek out opportunities for improvement where possible, sharing any great ideas you have.

Technical and mechanical mindset, to enable you to set up our machines correctly and efficiently identify any faults to minimise/avoid downtime.

Experience in a fast-paced FMCG Production environment would be fantastic, particularly with large tissue or paper rewinders.

Critical thinking with an inquisitive mindset (i.e. confidence to challenge) will go a long way.

Ideally, you will have previous experience operating a Converting Line within the tissue or paper industry. If not, we are still open to hearing from candidates from within the Food sector or other FMCG environments.

As part of our process, if shortlisted, you will be asked to complete a role-relevant assessment. This will be sent via email from TalentCentral (SHL). Please note this is a requirement in our selection process, therefore we cannot progress with your application until you have completed the candidate assessment. If you require any adjustments necessary to complete the online assessment, please get in touch.
