Factory Production Manager, Greenford, London. You’ll play a pivotal role in overseeing our exceptional production team, focussing on achieving a neutral or positive labour variance, driving continuous improvement and implementing lean manufacturing principles.
About Us
This is a lovely opportunity to join a business with an impressive set of accreditations, from B Corp status to Gold standard Investors in People. We are a diverse team with a shared set of professional goals and social values that drive a hugely satisfying working experience. Belazu has been a pioneer of supplying high quality, Middle Eastern and Mediterranean Ingredients within the UK’s Foodservice for over 30 years. We are an innovative leader in our field, with an energetic and high performing working culture. We have ambitious plans to grow over the next 5 years and take great pride in the values that form the spine of our business. We have recently been recognised as a Sunday Times Best Place to Work 2024.
About the Role
Key Responsibilities:
- Maximise efficiency by planning and overseeing the production process, monitoring production performance and labour variance to optimize labour allocation in the timely manufacture of high quality food products.
- Meet all quality and regulatory standards, working with the quality assurance team to address and resolve any production issues that impact quality.
- Develop the production staff team, with regular performance reviews, feedback and support to foster a culture of food safety, quality and continuous improvement.
- Identify opportunity and drive change to optimize production processes, reduce cost and enhance efficiency.
- Work alongside the procurement team to manage production inventory and resource.
- Ensure compliance with all relevant food safety regulations, including HACCP, GMP, and FDA requirements. Maintain a safe working environment by enforcing health and safety protocols alongside SHE team.
- Maintain accurate production records and generate regular reports, prepare and manage production budgets (including forecasting and cost control) and manage standard operating procedures across the production function.
You'll be a great fit if you:
✔️ Have a minimum of 5 years experience in a production management role within the food manufacturing industry
✔️ Have experience with lean manufacturing principles and continuous improvement methodologies
✔️ Have a comprehensive knowledge of food safety regulations and quality control standards
✔️Can demonstrate a good history of driving continuous improvement initiatives to boost efficiency and streamline processes
✔️ Are proficient in using production management software and tools
This may not be the role for you if you:
Struggle in a fast-paced environment and remaining calm in a busy and demanding department.
Aren’t a self-starter. We’ll always be here to give direction but we love to see how you tackle things with your own thinking first
Don’t have an eye for detail and process. We’re looking for someone that doesn’t like remaining comfortable with how things are done and can continuously analyse where improvements might be made.
Have not yet had an opportunity to lead a multi functioning team – this is a big and busy department that benefits from confident man management.
Do not have expertise in optimising workforce efficiency – we like to consistently achieve a positive labour variance with many moving parts.

- 30 days annual plus 3 public holidays per annum
- Auto-Enrolment Pension, plus an enhanced pension option
- Discretionary annual bonus scheme
- Learning and development opportunities for everyone in the business
- Life assurance

- 40 hrs/wk. i.e. Core hours between 7.00 am-3.30pm Mon-Fri (with some flexibility
- Annual salary review (our ‘movers and shakers’ are always rewarded)
