Senior Technical Manager East Riding of Yorkshire Food Manufacturing 80,000 85,000 Car Allowance & benefits. Most Technical Managers dont actually want to spend their day sat in meetings, strategising and polishing PowerPoints. They want to be on the factory floor. Close to the action. Solving problems before they become problems. If that sounds like you, keep reading. This is a Site Technical Lead role with a food manufacturer who supplies into the big retailers. And when I say big retailers I mean M&S and Tesco. If youve never dealt with them before, this isnt the job for you. They need someone whos confident in front of those customers, but equally at home in hairnet and boots, leading the technical agenda across the site. That means making sure the basics quality, hygiene, GMP are nailed every day, while also pushing for better. Better processes, better standards, better results. Its not a desk job. Youll be hands-on, visible, and involved. Youll lead and develop a large technical team, but youll also be the one who rolls up your sleeves when something goes wrong. Because thats what this kind of role takes. The business? A large food manufacturing group, not caught up in corporate politics, supplying some of the best products to the biggest retailers. Theyre heavily investing in new equipment, processes and automation, having just spent nearly 2m on a new facility. Background? At least 5 years experience as a Site Technical Manager in a large food manufacturing organisation. Direct experience with M&S and Tesco (this is non-negotiable) The ability to lead a team with a hands-on approach. Enough commercial awareness to know that quality doesnt exist in a vacuum it has to balance with cost and efficiency. This is a significant role for a business looking to level up.
