CMP Products is recruiting four Production Supervisors to join the team in Unit 36. Reporting to the Manufacturing Manager, you’ll lead an assigned production team and help deliver safe, high-quality and efficient operations.

These are additional positions to complement our existing supervision team. They will strengthen production supervision and provide further operational support to QHSE. Working alongside existing Production Supervisors and closely with QHSE colleagues, you’ll help reinforce operational standards, support safe and consistent production, and help teams resolve issues in a practical and timely way. You’ll also provide operational input to help embed good Quality, Health, Safety and Environmental practices across production activities. This is an opportunity to build on the supervision already in place while contributing to a safe, consistent and high-performing operation.

What you'll be doing

• Lead and coordinate daily production activities to meet output, quality and delivery targets.
• Monitor productivity, efficiency and downtime, and support short-term production planning and resource allocation.
• Promote safe systems of work and ensure company procedures and relevant requirements are followed.
• Support risk assessments, safety briefings, toolbox talks and the reporting and investigation of incidents.
• Help ensure products meet drawings, specifications and quality standards, and promote a “right first time” approach.5
• Lead, coach and support team members, managing attendance, performance, conduct and capability in line with company policy.
• Ensure accurate production records, documentation and system transactions, and effective shift handovers.
• Identify operational issues and improvement opportunities, supporting corrective action, problem-solving and continuous improvement.
• Monitor production performance and support cost control, waste reduction and process optimisation.

Who we're looking for

You’ll have experience in a manufacturing or production environment, including supervising or leading a team and managing attendance, performance, conduct or capability in line with organisational procedures. You’ll understand shop-floor operations and have working knowledge of health, safety and environmental requirements, alongside good organisation and planning skills, confidence using workplace systems, and the ability to communicate clearly, lead effectively and stay calm under pressure. A proactive, solutions-focused approach and a strong commitment to health, safety, quality and the environment are essential.

A supervisory, leadership or QHSE-related qualification would be an advantage, as would experience in a shift-based environment, using KPI or Time & Attendance systems, and an understanding of quality control procedures.

We ask that you work in a safe manner; drive positive behaviour and lead by example with regard to the company’s health, safety and environmental policies.

This position will be on a full time, permanent basis. Working hours are an average of 37.5 hours per week on a shift rotation, which involves 10 x 12-hour shifts over a 21-day cycle with 11 days off.
