Production Supervisor – Food Manufacturing

Spalding | £30,000 - £35,000 | 3’s & 2’s (06:00–18:00) | Permanent | Site-Based

If you're a Production Supervisor who prefers being on the floor over being behind a desk – this might be your next move.

This Production Supervisor role is all about leading from the front. You’ll be running shifts, managing a team, solving problems in real-time, and making sure everything from start-up to handover runs like it should.

You know what factory life’s like – fast, pressured, full of curveballs. And as Production Supervisor, you’ll be the one keeping your area on track when plans inevitably change.

This is a 3’s & 2’s shift pattern (06:00–18:00), known as the Blue Shift. It’s not for everyone, but it gives you long weekends every other week – and once you're into the rhythm, it works.

What a Production Supervisor actually does here:

Lead the team. Own the shift. Fix the issues.

Make sure labour, materials and machines are all lined up at the start.

Be visible – not just during start-up and shutdown, but throughout the shift.

Handle team briefings, performance chats, return-to-works and handovers.

Hit your KPIs while keeping safety and quality rock solid.

Identify weak spots, support your team, and drive improvements.

What kind of Production Supervisor are we looking for?

You’ve worked in food production and managed teams – probably as a Production Supervisor or Team Leader already.

You get that “good enough” doesn’t cut it in this environment.

You know how to lead under pressure, keep people motivated and standards high.

You’re not afraid to challenge underperformance – but you do it the right way.

Most of all, you’re hands-on, switched-on, and committed to making your area run better every single day.

What’s in it for you?

£30,000 – £35,000 salary (depending on experience)

22 days holiday

Life assurance & pension scheme

Staff shop with discounted products

Perks platform with discounts across retailers

Optional extras (dental, insurance, hospital cash plans)

Support with mortgages, financial wellbeing, and even tutoring for your kids

Free on-site parking
