Family and values are what makes us different, and we are a proud bunch, join us and you too could be proud to be Warburtons.

The Recipe

We’re looking for a high-performing Operations Support Manager to lead manufacturing operations within one of our fast-paced bakery sites. This is a pivotal leadership role, responsible for delivering safe, efficient, and high-quality production to ensure our products reach customers on time and in full, every day.

People Leadership & Engagement

Lead, coach, and develop Team Managers and operators to build a high-performance culture
Drive engagement through clear communication, accountability, and recognition
Manage performance, capability and development, ensuring strong succession and skills growth

Continuous Improvement

Identify and deliver CI opportunities to improve safety, quality, cost, and efficiency
Embed CI tools and ways of working (e.g. waste elimination, downtime reduction, SMED principles)
Lead cross-functional improvement initiatives across the site

Cross-Functional Collaboration

Work closely with Engineering, Hygiene, Technical, Planning, and Supply Chain functions
Ensure aligned priorities and strong teamwork across the factory
Act as a key member of the Site Leadership Team, contributing to site strategy and performance

Extra Dough

At last and by no means yeast you will want to know what your breads worth:

A slice of the annual profits (discretionary profit share)
Family time is important to us and we know it will be to you so you have the opportunity to purchase up to an extra weeks annual leave.
Award winning pension scheme with company contributions of 7%
Private medical insurance and Life assurance
Products you will love along with deals and discounts for you and the family through our Extra Dough website
Continued investment in your personal development
Fully stocked kitchens filled with our delicious products for you to enjoy with your daily brew!

We respect and value difference. We look to create an inclusive workplace that promotes and values diversity. Companies that are diverse in age, gender identity, race, religion, sexual orientation, physical or mental ability, ethnicity, or any other aspect which makes them unique, are proven to be better companies. More importantly, creating an environment where everyone, from any background, can do their best work, is the right thing to do.
