You will likely have:

Experience within fast-paced manufacturing environments, ideally food, bakery, FMCG, or similar
Strong operational leadership experience with a hands-on approach
Confidence engaging and influencing at Site Lead / Senior Leadership level
Experience working cross-functionally between operations and technical teams
A track record of driving continuous improvement and operational performance
