About the role:

As a Leading Hand in our Paper Production division at Visy Pulp & Paper, you will play a pivotal role in ensuring the smooth and efficient operation of our paper manufacturing processes. Reporting to the Production Foreman, you will lead a team of machine operators, overseeing all aspects of production to meet budget targets, maintain quality standards, and uphold safety and environmental compliance.

Duties:

  1. Production Support: Lead efforts to achieve and improve production targets on a daily basis, providing technical support, troubleshooting complex production problems, and overseeing machinery set-ups to optimise efficiency.
  2. Quality Assurance: Maintain a high standard of quality by regularly checking process conditions against check sheets, monitoring final product parameters, and taking corrective action as needed to ensure adherence to customer specifications.
  3. Safety Management: Uphold all safety protocols and procedures, ensuring that personnel adhere to PPE requirements, conducting regular safety inspections, and participating in incident investigations to maintain a safe working environment.
  4. People Management: Lead, motivate, and develop the production team, assessing competency, delegating responsibilities, and providing ongoing training and support to ensure that employees perform to the required standard.
  5. Environmental Compliance: Adhere to all environmental procedures and policies, implement actions to minimise environmental impact, and actively participate in discussions and initiatives aimed at promoting environmental stewardship within the organisation.
  6. Communication and Collaboration: Share information and new ideas with shift operators, attend meetings to discuss repair work and improvements, and collaborate with the machine supervisor and other team members to drive continuous improvement and ensure the efficient operation of the paper production process.
  7. Documentation and Reporting: Maintain accurate records of production activities, quality checks, and safety inspections, reporting any non-conforming products or safety incidents and implementing procedural changes resulting from corrective actions.
  8. Performance Management: Regularly manage and review the performance of shift operators, utilizing the Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) system to identify and address performance or procedural issues, and liaising with the machine supervisor as needed to initiate disciplinary action or coordinate training programs.

What You Will Bring to the Team:

  • Leadership Excellence: Your proven ability to inspire and guide teams towards surpassing targets will drive our success.
  • Technical Proficiency: With deep expertise in paper manufacturing, you'll streamline processes and optimise machinery for efficiency.
  • Quality Focus: Your meticulous attention to detail ensures our products consistently meet and exceed customer expectations.
  • Safety Commitment: Upholding safety protocols, you'll foster a secure work environment, safeguarding our team.
  • Environmental Consciousness: Your dedication to sustainability aligns with our values, minimising our environmental impact.
  • Team Collaboration: Your strong communication skills promote effective teamwork and innovation across departments.
  • Results-Driven Mindset: Your proactive approach ensures we meet production targets and drive continuous improvement.

In summary, your leadership, technical prowess, quality focus, safety commitment, environmental consciousness, team collaboration, and results-driven mindset will elevate our team's performance and uphold our standards of excellence in the paper industry.

When you join Visy, you're joining a global leader dedicated to making serious progress in the sustainable packaging, recycling, re-manufacturing and logistics industries. We love solving the problems that make an impact and grow our business. If you think you can help us, you'll fit right in
