Line Leader - Day Shift

We are recruiting for a Line Leader at our Alconbury Weald site (PE28 4WY). This permanent, weekly-paid role offers reliable hours, consistent work and opportunities to build a career within a large global fresh produce business.

Good with people and ready to take the next step? Our Line Leader Academy Masterclass provides the training, knowledge and confidence to help you succeed, even if you have never led a production line before.

• Shift Pattern: 4 on, 4 off – 07:00–19:30
• Hourly Rate: £13.70–£14.90 depending on experience, paid weekly, with opportunities to earn more as your skills and responsibilities develop.

As a Line Leader, you will support your team and keep your production line running safely and efficiently. Your responsibilities will include:

• Organising the work on your line and providing clear direction and support to General Operatives.
• Monitoring performance against production targets and identifying ways to improve.
• Completing production paperwork accurately.
• Carrying out floor checks and ensuring safe working practices, including correct use of PPE.
• Providing a clear handover to the next shift.

With full training and support through our Academy, this is an opportunity to turn your people skills into practical leadership experience and develop a long-term career with AMFRESH.

You do not need previous production line leadership experience to apply. We are looking for people who communicate clearly, work well with others and are ready to learn.

You may have supported colleagues, trained new starters, organised tasks or helped a team work towards a shared goal. Experience from other industries is welcome, and previous leadership experience is helpful but not essential.

We are looking for:

• Strong people skills and the confidence to give clear instructions and encouragement.
• A reliable, organised approach and the ability to stay calm when things get busy.
• Good attention to detail and a commitment to safety and quality.
• A willingness to learn, take responsibility and develop your leadership skills.

At AMFRESH, we offer benefits to support you at work and at home:

• FRESHSavings: Savings on food, drink, shopping and more.
• FRESHHealth: 24/7 GP access for you and your family, plus cashback on health and wellbeing appointments.
• FRESHLiving: Gym discounts and savings on holidays and travel.
• FRESHSupport: Confidential wellbeing support and access to our on-site Occupational Health team.

We recognise colleagues who demonstrate our values and make a positive contribution. We also offer courses and development opportunities to help you build your skills and grow with us.

• Opening in 2023 after the success of our Peterborough site, Alconbury Weald is already at the heart of the UK’s fresh produce supply chain. Every day, we sort, process, pack and deliver fresh, healthy produce to the UK’s leading supermarkets, so there’s a good chance the citrus, grapes and melons you buy have passed through our site.

  AMFRESH is growing fast, and so are the opportunities. With over 800 colleagues from more than 50 countries, we’re powered by diverse talent and bold ambition. We put people first, investing in training, progression and long-term careers, and helping everyone reach their full potential.
