Join to apply for the Manufacturing Lead role at Gallagher

At Gallagher, our purpose is simple: "Protect what matters most."

Since 1938, we've been delivering world-class technology solutions that safeguard people, property, and livelihoods across the globe. Within our Animal Management business, we're passionate about making farm life easier and more productive through innovative, high-tech solutions that support environmental and animal welfare outcomes.

As part of this commitment, Norton Livestock Handling Solutions - Australia's leading manufacturer of farm gates, gate hardware, customised livestock yard systems, and handling equipment - has been serving the animal farming sector since 1989.

Together, Gallagher and Norton combine global innovation with local expertise to deliver trusted solutions that make a real difference on the farm.

The Opportunity

We're looking for a hands-on Manufacturing Lead to take charge of daily operations at our Hastings facility. This is a rare opportunity to lead a large, skilled team in a fast-paced environment where your decisions directly impact safety, quality, and productivity. You'll be responsible for driving continuous improvement, optimising processes, and ensuring our production lines run smoothly and efficiently.

You'll also play a key role in shaping the future of our manufacturing systems, including contributing to strategic upgrades like the implementation of S4 Hana. If you're ready to lead with purpose, empower your team, and make a tangible impact, this is your chance to do just that.

The Fit

We're after a confident, collaborative leader with 3–5 years of experience in manufacturing leadership. You'll be someone who thrives on the floor, leads by example, and knows how to get the best out of your team. You'll bring strong planning and problem-solving skills, a passion for continuous improvement, and a commitment to safety and quality.

You'll also have:

  • Proven experience managing large teams and allocating daily work.
  • A solid understanding of lean manufacturing principles and ERP systems (experience with S4 Hana is a bonus).
  • Exposure to MYOB and inventory processes.
  • Excellent communication skills and a high attention to detail.
  • A proactive, can-do attitude and a collaborative mindset.
  • A forklift license is advantageous but not essential.

Why Gallagher?

At Gallagher, we're proud of our supportive, family-friendly culture and our commitment to helping our people grow. You'll be joining a team that values innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

Apply now to make a real impact in Gallagher's Manufacturing team and help shape the future of our global business.
