About the Role

We are looking for an experienced Production Lead to join our team in Skelmersdale on a 6-month contract. You will work alongside two other Production Leads, taking ownership of day-to-day operations while driving improvements across safety, quality, service, and cost. This role requires someone who can hit the ground running—an individual with strong supervisory experience and a proven background in manufacturing and production environments.

Key Responsibilities
  • Provide frontline leadership and supervision to a team of 25-30 production staff.
  • Manage day-to-day operations to ensure targets are met across safety, quality, service, and cost.
  • Lead effective Tier 2 daily meetings, working closely with planners, maintenance engineers, and safety personnel.
  • Collate, analyse, and submit operational reports to senior leadership.

  • 5+ years’ experience in a manufacturing or production environment.
  • Significant experience in a supervisory or leadership role.
  • Strong operational awareness with the ability to step in and become effective quickly.
  • Engineering, management, or supervisory qualifications are a bonus, but not essential.
  • Confident leading teams and coordinating cross‑functional stakeholders.
  • Strong communication and reporting skills.
