A high-performing food production enterprise is appointing an Operations Manager to partner closely with an incoming Managing Director and safeguard the business’s operational excellence, scalability, and long-term returns.

 

This is a strategic operations leadership role, created to ensure the organisation operates as one coordinated, disciplined system as complexity, data intensity, and retailer expectations increase. The role provides structured oversight across production systems, packhouse operations, technical infrastructure, compliance, labour discipline, and performance analytics, enabling the MD to focus on growth, client relationships, and capital allocation.

 

You will bring strong analytical capability, systems thinking, and a deep understanding of modern food production environments, including technical infrastructure, process controls, and compliance frameworks. This role is central to preserving consistent delivery of strong ROI and supporting the transition toward a future multi-site production model.
