About the role

Finding better ways to provide the materials the world needs.

We are looking for an Operations Centre Supervisor to identify full potential and improvement opportunities across the business. This position will work on a 7 on, 7 off roster with a 24-hour rotation. This role covers vacation relief and acts as a ‘floater;’ there is no designated shift, so flexibility is required.

The Supervisor provides operational leaders with value optimized plans that accurately reflect operational constraints, identify threats and opportunities and are effectively communicated at the right time with the right level of granularity to enable effective and efficient execution. They will lead projects and manage change (including cultural transformation, strategic change and commitment to continuous improvement) to drive effectiveness and efficiency across the business.

Leading on the frontline is one of the most important jobs in our business and comes with a huge amount of responsibility. We need you to motivate, inspire and keep your people safe and well. 

With signature leadership training programmes, growing and developing is more than an opportunity – it is something we actively plan and make happen. Every day our leaders grow, while our rosters are designed to help you live the lifestyle that is right for you and your family.
