Working Foreman – Food Production | €4,236.34 | Day shifts
As a Working Foreman, you’ll be responsible for supervising part of the production and packaging process. You’ll make sure everything runs smoothly and step in where needed. Your focus will be on quality, efficiency and safety. This includes carrying out spot checks on products (looking at things like colour, smell and temperature), as well as checking machines and carrying out basic preventive maintenance to avoid breakdowns.
The role is mainly in day shifts, though since production runs between 06:00 and 22:00, you may work on a shifted day schedule. No two days are the same, which keeps the job varied and engaging.
