We're on the lookout for a hands-on and motivated Team Leader to join our Production Leadership Team. This role is critical to ensuring our food quality and safety standards are consistently met while achieving key operational KPIs across our pastry and packaging lines.

You'll ideally have:

  • Minimum 2 years' leadership experience in food manufacturing or processing
  • Strong people management and communication skills
  • Demonstrated experience in high-volume, automated environments
  • Ability to think on your feet and problem-solve effectively
  • Solid understanding of HACCP, GMP, and WHS procedures
  • Computer literacy (experience with inventory/warehouse systems a bonus)
  • A positive, solutions-focused mindset and strong customer-centric approach
What You'll Get in Return
  • A competitive salary based on experience
  • Work with a driven team in a growing business
  • The opportunity to make a real impact in a company with strong momentum and ambition
