Syrup Room Team Leader

Because with us, you are not only responsible for the production process, but also for the development of a complete leadership structure.

You do not only manage employees directly, but you build a strong team of Assistant Production Team Leads. You coach them in their leadership, provide direction, and ensure that they manage their teams effectively. In doing so, you create ownership, clarity, and continuity within the department.

You are given the space to take initiative, implement improvements, and further develop your team. You are in the middle of the operation, but you also look ahead. You know when to adjust, when to coach, and when to give space.

At Refresco, we believe that strong results start with strong teams. And you are the one who moves that team forward every day.

The drink preparation/syrup room is the beating heart of our production. Here, our non-alcoholic beverages are prepared, mixed, and checked according to recipe before they go to the canning lines. You ensure that this process runs safely, efficiently, and according to the correct quality standards. As Drink Preparation Team Leader, you are responsible for:

Leading, coaching, and developing five Assistant Production Team Leads and the team of Syrup Preparers. Strengthening leadership skills, ownership, and independence in your Assistant Team Leads. Creating a clear structure, clear priorities, and effective collaboration between the different shifts. Coordinating the receipt, storage, dosing, and processing of raw materials and semi-finished products. Ensuring safety, quality, efficiency, and delivery reliability. Monitoring production planning and results and adjusting where necessary. Identifying opportunities for improvement and stimulating continuous improvement within the department. Working closely with colleagues from production, canning lines, logistics, technical, and quality.

At Refresco, it is not just about what you bring, but also about what you can develop with us. We give you the space to make an impact, to keep challenging yourself, and to grow.

That is why we offer you

An attractive salary between € 3,800 and € 5,538 gross per month, depending on your experience and knowledge. 8% holiday allowance, bonus opportunities up to 8%, and a fixed year-end bonus. 25 vacation days based on full-time employment. A position in day shifts. Access to the Refresco Academy with training and education that aligns with your development. An innovative working environment with modern production technology, engaged colleagues, and plenty of opportunities to improve processes. Growth opportunities within an internationally growing company.

You are an experienced leader who gets energy from both people and production. You know how to empower Assistant Team Leads, maintain an overview when it is busy, and dare to make choices when the situation demands it.

You are visible on the shop floor, communicate clearly, and address people where necessary. At the same time, you listen, instill confidence, and help employees and Assistant Team Leads to become better every day.

You think in solutions, take responsibility, and do not let challenges knock you off course. Safety and quality are a matter of course for you, as are collaboration and improving processes.

You understand that good leadership does not mean doing everything yourself, but rather enabling others to be successful.

HBO working and thinking level, with a completed technical education as a requirement. Experience in a leadership role within a production environment, preferably with indirect management or leading other managers. Knowledge of and experience in the process industry or food industry. A result-oriented and analytical mindset. Strong communication skills and persuasiveness. The ability to motivate, coach, and develop Assistant Team Leads and employees. A proactive attitude and the drive to continuously improve processes. Experience with Continuous Improvement, LEAN, or TPM is a plus, but not a requirement.

At Refresco, you get the chance to further develop your leadership, make your ideas a reality, and achieve results together with your team that you can be proud of.

Because ultimately, it is not just about what comes out of our canning lines. It is about the people who make that possible every day.

You move the team. We move your career.
