- Supporting preventative maintenance and reporting equipment issues.
- Developing and maintaining work instructions and standard operating procedures.
- Working collaboratively with other department leaders to achieve business objectives.

You could come from:

- Food production or processing.
- Hospitality, including executive chefs, sous chefs or kitchen managers.
- Logistics, warehousing or distribution.
- Defence or emergency services.
- Any workplace where leading people, managing priorities and delivering quality outcomes under pressure are critical.

- Plan and coordinate work to meet daily production targets and deadlines.
- Work effectively in a fast-paced environment with constantly changing priorities.
- Maintain high standards of safety, quality and accountability.
- Solve problems quickly and make sound decisions.
- Communicate effectively with people at all levels of the business.
- Take ownership and drive results.

Previous experience supervising teams of 10-20 employees, managing shift operations, or coordinating production, service or operational activities will be highly regarded.
