What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to leverage my leadership skills in a dynamic environment, focusing on operational efficiency and team development.

I am a dedicated Section Leader/Manager at BAKKAVOR Group, where I ensure that food products for major supermarket chains are manufactured and packed in compliance with the Food Safety Act. My role involves managing operations, training staff, and ensuring timely delivery while maintaining high standards of quality and safety.

Previously, I served as a Team Leader at HelloFresh, where I honed my ability to work under pressure and manage production lines efficiently. My journey from healthcare to food manufacturing has been rewarding, allowing me to develop my leadership skills and contribute to team performance improvements.
