Production Leading Hand - senior factory role

Be well remunerated for your skills and experience

Are you a hands-on leader who gets your energy from bringing out the best in people?

We’re looking for an experienced Production Leading Hand to join our factory team at Niagara Therapy. This is a senior factory role, reporting directly to the Production Supervisor.

It is an opportunity for someone who knows that great production results start with a great team—and who enjoys coaching, motivating and supporting people to achieve their best.

You’ll play an important role in keeping our production team engaged, productive and focused on delivering the high-quality products our customers rely on.

About Niagara Therapy

Niagara Therapy is a proud, long-standing family business that has been providing health and mobility solutions for people with age-related health concerns for more than 50 years.

We design and manufacture high-quality therapy furniture and equipment from our purpose-built head office and manufacturing facility in Parkinson. We’re committed to quality, safety, service excellence and continuous improvement, and we value people who take pride in what they do.

About the role

Only day shift - this is a full-time Monday–Thursday role, giving you the benefit of a four-day working week.

Your focus will be on people leadership, production performance and quality.

You’ll work alongside the team on the floor, setting the standard, solving problems and making sure everyone has the support, training and direction they need to succeed. There will be opportunities for development for this role.

What you’ll be doing

- Get to know your people, understand their strengths and help them perform at their best to achieve daily targets and KPIs
- Work closely with the Production & Warehouse Supervisor and Deliveries Manager to manage daily production priorities, allocate tasks and manage priorities effectively
- Training, cross-training, monitor production quality, monitor raw materials and identify and troubleshoot production issues




- Maintain clear communication with internal stakeholders and provide a high level of service

About you

You’re more than just someone who knows production—you’re a people leader.

You enjoy working with different personalities, building trust and creating an environment where people feel supported, valued and motivated to do their best.

You’ll ideally bring:

- 2–3 years’ experience in a similar production leadership or leading hand role
- A proactive, positive and hands-on approach
- Strong people leadership and relationship-building skills
- Strong coaching, training and communication skills
- A proven ability to achieve production targets and KPIs
- Initiative, accountability and a genuine willingness to take ownership
- A strong commitment to quality, safety and continuous improvement

Why join Niagara Therapy?

This is an opportunity to join a reliable, established family business where your contribution genuinely matters.

You’ll have the chance to make a difference—not only to production outcomes, but to the people you lead and develop every day.

If you’re a positive, practical and people-focused leader who enjoys seeing a team succeed, we’d love to hear from you.
