Job Details

Operations Manager

Our Company

Greenvale AP is one of the UK’s leading fresh potato companies; growing, packing and supplying in excess of 300,000 tonnes of fresh potatoes and 37,000 tonnes of seed potatoes each year with revenues of circa £150m per year. Our success is built on working closely with our partners throughout the supply chain to deliver outstanding service and quality for our customers and growers alike. We now require an established Operations Manager at our Duns site in the Scottish Borders.

The Opportunity

Reporting to the Operations Director based offsite,  the role will develop and implement an operational plan to meet the agreed performance plans and drive manufacturing efficiencies through developing a lean culture that champions best practice. The site has received significant investment in automation in the last two years so the role will lead the team to understand how a new level of data availability can be converted into operational improvements and positive decision making. As the most senior operations person on site, the role will be a figurehead for the site management team and lead multi-functional projects across the wider group.

The Candidate

To be suitable, candidates must have current senior production or operations management experience in a fast-paced blue-chip manufacturing environment with an established track record of delivering efficiencies whilst demonstrating strong leadership, mentoring and communication skills. The successful candidate will have a real eye for detail, be comfortable making decisions and be passionate about the benefits created when driving team engagement and automation projects. Does this sound like you? If so you will make a very big impact on the Duns business and wider Group.
