Why This Role Matters

At Feedwell, we deliver thousands of fresh, high-quality meals every day to clients like Google, TikTok, Louis Vuitton, and Amazon. We're proud to run one of Sydney's most structured and respected production kitchens calm, system-driven, and ego-free.

As our Production Kitchen Supervisor (PM Shift), you'll lead a crew of around 20 to make sure products are prepped, assembled, and finished within allocated production times. It's not about shouting or chaos; it's about running a tight, organised shift where everyone knows what to do and gets it done.

The Products & Prep You'll Oversee

On the PM shift, your team prepares the bulk of next-day catering and retail items, including:

  • Salad bowls and salad platters
  • Breakfast pots (bircher, chia puddings, yoghurts, fruit cups)
  • Grazing and fruit platters
  • Fresh snack pots (dips, cut fruit & veg)
  • Bakery and dessert items

Prep work involves chopping, portioning, and batching fresh produce and proteins to recipe specs; roasting simple components (chicken, eggs, vegetables, grains, pasta); and assembling at scale using production line systems making sure every item looks and tastes as it should.

What Success Looks Like

By 3 Months:

  • Fully own the PM shift accountable for quality, output, compliance, and crew performance.
  • Keep labour costs on budget from day one.
  • Develop at least 2 effective Team Leaders.

By 6 Months:

  • Consistently achieve 96% recipe adherence.
  • Build a capable supervisory team with a reliable 2IC.
  • Keep production running smoothly even with last-minute changes.

By 12 Months:

  • Sustain 98% recipe adherence and zero food safety non-conformances.
  • Lead a stable crew with 4 long-term Team Leaders and a fully trained 2IC.
  • Be recognised across Feedwell for running one of our most structured, high-performing shifts.
Why You'll Love It Here
  • Stretch: Take charge of ~20 people in a high-volume production kitchen, with real accountability.
  • Growth: For those who want it and are suitable, opportunities exist to step into greater leadership responsibilities.
  • Satisfaction:
  • No weekend work (only minor rostering from home).
  • Calm, respectful, ego-free environment.
  • Great hours that support work-life balance.
  • Pride in running a team that produces consistently every night.
  • Impact: What you do directly shapes how thousands of people experience Feedwell's food every day.
What You'll Need to Succeed
  • 23 years leading shifts/teams (1520 staff) in kitchens, catering, or food production.
  • Experience supervising casual staff, many without professional cooking backgrounds, and training them into reliable performers.
  • Practical rostering and labour management experience.
  • HACCP food safety knowledge.
  • Strong communication and team leadership skills.
  • Motivation to enforce systems and deliver consistent results not chase creativity.
  • Comfortable with PM shifts and hands-on leadership.
The Environment

We're a high-volume, fast-moving production kitchen. The crew are mostly casuals, many without professional cooking backgrounds but with the right leadership and our structured system, they become a solid, reliable team.

Part of your role is to trial and train new candidates, building them up into dependable crew members. Your job is to coach and develop your team, and make sure the system is applied consistently so every shift runs smoothly.

If you love calm, structured kitchens and take pride in getting a team humming every night, this is for you. If you're chasing creativity, this isn't the role.

How to Apply

If you're a structured, organised leader who wants to run a team the right way with systems, consistency, and respect we'd love to hear from you.
