Evening Team Leader

Langage Farm is a family-owned, well-established dairy product manufacturer, supplying several national retail chains. We are currently seeking an Evening Team Leader to join our expanding team. This full-time position requires an average of 40 hours per week, Monday to Friday, with shifts starting at 14:00pm and finishing when production is complete and all the hygiene tasks have been completed. Some weekend work may be required occasionally, depending on the needs of the business.

The ideal candidate will have strong leadership and communication skills, with the ability to effectively manage and motivate the evening team, whilst working closely with our Night Shift Supervisor. While prior team leader experience is preferred, we are also open to applicants who can demonstrate the ability to lead and work well under pressure.

You will play a crucial role in leading the team during the end of production, ensuring that cleaning tasks are completed efficiently and to the highest standards once the production line is finished. It's important to maintain a smooth transition from production to cleaning, ensuring that all hygiene requirements are met before the next production shift begins the following day. Additionally, you will handle some minor office tasks, such as reporting and documentation, to support our technical team.

This position will also require you to cover for the Night Shift Supervisor during periods of absence. A Level 2 Food Hygiene certificate is preferred, although not essential. The successful candidate must be punctual, efficient, and able to work well in a team environment. Time management and efficiency are key, as this is a fast-paced, floor-based position. If you are a motivated and proactive individual, we encourage you to apply.

We are looking for someone who is reliable, proactive, and highly organised, with strong time management skills and a hands-on approach. This is a floor-based role where efficiency, attention to detail, and teamwork are essential.
