Competitive Salary
We’re looking for a proactive, reliable, and hands-on Whole Bird Line Section Leader to join our production team at 2 Sisters Willand. You’ll be the first point of leadership on the shop floor, overseeing around 60 team members across four whole bird lines.
This is a critical role in ensuring smooth daily operations – from planning and staffing, to maintaining food safety standards, hygiene compliance and continuous improvement.
The Role
This is a fast-paced, frontline leadership role where you’ll manage people, processes and performance across a high-volume chilled production environment.
That means:
- Ensuring staff are in place and lines are ready by 5am
- Implementing daily production plans and managing line resources
- Maintaining high standards of food safety, hygiene and GMP
- Supporting audits and acting as a key contact during visits
- Managing KPIs, waste control and continuous improvement initiatives
What we’re looking for
You don’t need experience – just the right attitude and approach. We’re looking for someone who:
- Is fluent in written and spoken English (essential for documentation and communication)
- Has strong attention to detail and organisational skills
- Is a confident communicator, able to build trust and lead a large team
- Can work proactively and stay calm under pressure
- Is flexible and reliable – happy to cover shifts or step in when needed
- Is comfortable working in a fast-paced chilled production environment
- No prior experience required – full training and qualifications provided!
What’s in it for you
- A clear path into operational leadership within one of the UK’s leading poultry producers
- Full support and development – including on-the-job training and formal qualifications
- A chance to work in a high-performing, structured team with real responsibility from day one
- A shift pattern that offers great work-life balance (4 days per week, early finish)
What to expect from us
- A straightforward, single-stage interview process onsite with the Hiring Manager
- A factory tour so you can see exactly what the role involves
- A friendly, driven team who value hard work, honesty, and a positive attitude
