Supervisor – People Leadership in Food Manufacturing

Attractive salary with career growth potential.

Lead with Purpose. Drive Performance. Shape the Future.

Are you an experienced supervisor with a passion for leading people in a fast-paced production environment? Or perhaps you're a strong leader from another industry, ready to step into food manufacturing? At Gold Coast Bakery, we value leadership first and foremost — and we'll provide training for the right person to succeed.

If you know how to motivate, support, and drive results through strong team leadership, we want to hear from you.

We're seeking supervisors to take charge and help us deliver excellence in every bake.

What You'll Be Doing

As a Supervisor, you'll be the driving force behind your team's success, ensuring smooth operations and a safe, positive working environment.

You will:

  • Lead and manage production team members across shifts
  • Achieve production targets for quality, efficiency, and yield
  • Ensure compliance with WHS, food safety, and hygiene standards
  • Monitor and manage workflows, coordinating breaks and allocating resources effectively including roster management
  • Coach and develop team members, providing training and ongoing support
  • Build and maintain a positive team culture with strong performance and accountability

What We're Looking For

We're after hands-on supervisors who know how to get the best from their teams while keeping the production floor running efficiently.

You'll bring:

  • Proven supervisory or people management experience (preferably in food production, food prep, or manufacturing – but not essential, as training is provided for the right leader)
  • The ability to manage competing priorities while staying calm under pressure
  • Strong communication skills and a lead-by-example mindset
  • Knowledge of (or willingness to learn) GMP, HACCP, and WHS standards
  • First Aid & CPR certification (or willingness to obtain)

Why Join Us?

  • Be part of a long-standing, values-driven company with over 80 years of success
  • Genuine growth and career progression opportunities
  • A supportive leadership team and collaborative culture
  • The chance to make a real impact on your team and the business every day

If you're ready to step into a leadership role where your experience counts — or you're an emerging leader with the drive to grow — apply now and grow your career with us.
