Full job description

Job Description — Factory Manager (Candidates with shift management experience will be considered favourably)

Reports to: Operations Location: Greenfield Hours: 40hrs Per Week -Mon to Thurs

Purpose of the Role

To lead all operations at the powder manufacturing and filling site — covering raw material intake, weighing, blending/mixing, filling, packing, and despatch — ensuring safe, compliant, efficient production that meets customer, quality, and commercial requirements. The Factory Manager is accountable for site performance across safety, quality, cost, delivery, and people.

Key Responsibilities

Operations & Performance

Full accountability for day-to-day site operations across the full powder manufacturing process: raw material intake and storage, weighing and batch make-up, blending/mixing, filling (sachet/pouch/tub), packing, and despatch.
Ensure blend batch accuracy, recipe control, and right-first-time manufacture, minimising rework and rejected batches.
Set and deliver site KPIs: OEE, yield, waste, giveaway, labour efficiency, downtime, and on-time-in-full (OTIF) delivery.
Plan production capacity and labour against the sales forecast; manage shift patterns and agency labour requirements.
Drive continuous improvement using lean tools (5S, root cause analysis, SMED) to reduce changeover times and material losses.
Manage site budgets including labour, consumables, engineering spend, and utilities.

Product Safety, Quality & Compliance

Drive BRCGS standards, acting as a senior member of the HACCP and safety team.
Ensure robust controls specific to powder handling: allergen segregation and validation, cross-contamination prevention, dust control, foreign body controls , and environmental monitoring.
Ensure full traceability from raw material intake through blending batches to finished sachets, and lead mass balance and traceability exercises.
Support customer and third-party audits, ensuring the site is audit-ready at all times.
Ensure change control, non-conformance, and CAPA processes are followed and closed out on time.

Health, Safety & Environment

Overall accountability for site health and safety, with particular attention to powder-specific risks: combustible dust (DSEAR/ATEX compliance), COSHH, manual handling, and occupational exposure (respiratory protection where required).
Ensure risk assessments, safe systems of work, and permit-to-work systems are current and followed.
Lead accident/incident investigation and drive a proactive near-miss reporting culture.

People & Leadership

Lead, develop, and performance-manage the site management team.
Own workforce planning, recruitment, absence management, disciplinary and grievance processes.
Build a culture of accountability, product safety awareness, and continuous improvement across all shifts.
Ensure effective communication across the site through daily/weekly meeting structures and visual management.

Engineering & Capital

Oversee planned preventative maintenance to maximise line availability on blending and filling equipment.
Support capital investment and manage project delivery.

Key Measures

Site OEE and line efficiency
OTIF / customer service level
Waste, giveaway, and material yield
Audit readiness (BRCGS, customer, internal)
Accident frequency rate and near-miss reporting
Labour cost vs budget; absence and turnover

Person Specification

Essential

Proven factory/production management experience in manufacturing, ideally powders, dry blending, or sachet/pouch filling but not essential.
Strong working knowledge of BRCGS, HACCP.
Understanding of DSEAR/combustible dust risk in powder environments
IOSH Managing Safely or NEBOSH qualification
Demonstrable track record of improving OEE, waste, and labour efficiency
Strong people leadership across multi-shift operations

Lean Six Sigma understanding
NEBOSH General Certificate

Pay: £35,000.00-£40,000.00 per year
