Site Director

Job Description

This site director role requires an individual with a strong track in manufacturing in the food or fmcg sector. You will drive the tactical delivery of operational excellence through strategic ability and mature management skills and values. Working closely with the GM you will set the blue print for operational excellence and will be clearly accountable for the delivery.

You will have the gravitas and pedigree to be seen as a natural successor to the GM role and immediately have the credibility with seniors, peers and reports that makes everyone recognise you are going to be a success. Ambition and a drive to succeed is critical here with a recognition for realistic timescales. There is a longer term job to be done here before further career progression is likely (3-4 years). Along with success this site needs you to bring continuity and stability across all operational activities.

Although seasoned you will be progressive and have delivered the results several times; a consummate professional who is self-aware and confident, and who will live the values and drive them into the business.

It is also important you clearly know when strategy is good and when action is needed, not being precious to get involved in the 'muck and bullets' when the pressure is on and never compromising on values.

Success in this role will guarantee a stepped change to your profile in the industry. Outstanding performance can bring unique rewards in this dynamic, driven business, operating in challenging and highly progressive chilled categories.
