Elevation Recruitment Group are proud to be supporting a large industrial manufacturer in Sheffield that’s on the hunt for a hands-on Production Team Leader to head up a busy welding and fabrication cell. If you're someone who thrives on leading from the front, improving processes, and developing people – this could be your next move.

What you’ll be doing:

Leading and mentoring your team to drive a strong safety-first culture (think daily toolbox talks & SWAP coaching).
Tracking daily performance and taking action when targets aren’t being hit.
Embedding continuous improvement tools (SIC, DCI) into the day-to-day to boost efficiency.
Training, developing, and supporting your team – while handling performance issues when needed.
Working closely with your opposite shift Team Leader to keep things running smoothly around the clock.
Planning workloads, managing KanBan levels, and making sure the right materials are on hand when needed.
Being the key voice for your value stream in daily Level 4 SQDCP meetings.

What we’re looking for:

3+ years of leadership experience in a manufacturing or engineering environment
Confident using MS Office & Excel (ERP experience is a bonus!)
Strong eye for safety, risk, and problem-solving
IOSH/NEBOSH, ILM, or other relevant qualifications are a nice-to-have
Comfortable using CI tools and lean techniques (or keen to learn)
