Role overview

This opportunity is for a Chief Operating Officer who can support the company’s long-term expansion and help build a leadership pipeline for future succession. The ideal person will bring operational leadership, business judgment, and a hands-on approach suitable for a growing organization.

What the role calls for

The position requires a proven leader who has successfully managed accountability and oversight across a manufacturing business operating from multiple sites. Experience in food manufacturing would be a strong advantage.

The company is looking for an entrepreneurial, adaptable leader who performs well in a positive work environment and is comfortable shaping an organization by guiding and influencing others rather than relying only on formal authority.
