As we grow, we're running a recruitment drive forskilled, experienced Production Operatorsacross our Plastics and Filling operations.
These are hands-on, full-time roles for people who take pride in running a line well – safely, to standard, and with the mechanical know-how to keep it moving.
We're specifically looking forOperator Level 3talent: production professionals with strong mechanical aptitude, a quality-first mindset, and the right attitude to own their work area and help the team perform.
About the Roles
You'll safely run your allocated work area to standard – operating machinery, maintaining product quality, completing checks accurately and responding early to abnormalities.
As a Level 3 Operator you'll go beyond standard running: making approved baseline adjustments, performing repeatable minor fixes, and carrying out first-line recovery to get the line back to standard.
What You'll Be Doing
Safely operate machinery and run your allocated Plastics or Filling work zone to standard across a full shift.
Carry out quality-at-source checks, GMP/housekeeping and process discipline – spotting quality issues before they become problems.
Complete standard operating checks and escalate abnormalities early and clearly.
Perform approved baseline adjustments, repeatable minor fixes, first-line recovery and resets to standard settings (Level 3 tasks).
Support changeovers and work alongside Line Setters, learning and signing off adjustments to build capability.




Record downtime, waste and production data accurately and contribute to A4 / 5-Why problem solving and continuous improvement.
Look out for your mates – report hazards and incidents promptly and help maintain a strong safety culture.
What You'll Bring
Solid production / manufacturing experience – ideally FMCG, and in a Plastics (injection / blow moulding, bottles) or Filling / Liquids environment.
Strong mechanical aptitude – confident making minor adjustments and first-line fixes to keep the line running.
The right attitude – reliable, safety-focused, quality-driven and a genuine team player who takes ownership.
Sound numeracy and literacy, and comfort with basic computer/data entry (downtime, waste and production records).
Working knowledge of GMP, quality "right first time" principles and safe work practices; exposure to LEAN / continuous improvement is a plus.
Willingness and availability to commit to a rotating or fixed shift – Day, Afternoon or Night.
