Team Leader – Hygiene Crew

Fresh Meats NZ – Napier

Fresh Meats NZ is a boutique lamb processor based in Pandora, Napier. We operate Monday to Friday on an alternating day schedule — processing one day, boning the next. 

We're looking for a motivated Team Leader to oversee our hygiene crew. This is a hands-on leadership role, ideal for someone who takes pride in high standards, leads by example, and enjoys working as part of a close-knit team.

While the hygiene team begins at 4.00 pm, the Team Leader will start at 3.00 pm to complete administrative and compliance-related tasks, including hygiene documentation and food safety paperwork.

You'll play a key role in maintaining our facility's cleanliness and food safety compliance, ensuring our operation runs smoothly and efficiently every day.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead, train, and support a small hygiene team to achieve cleaning standards
  • Ensure all hygiene, food safety, and health & safety procedures are followed
  • Monitor performance and complete cleaning score assessments
  • Manage shift planning and daily task allocation
  • Work closely with the Production and Quality teams to resolve any issues

What We're Looking For:

  • Proven reliability and strong leadership skills
  • A positive attitude and ability to motivate others
  • Good communication and organisational skills
  • Previous experience in industrial or food processing cleaning preferred
  • Physically fit and able to perform manual cleaning tasks as needed
  • Able to work evening shifts (typically 3:00pm–midnight)
  • Must pass a pre-employment drug and alcohol test

We Offer:

  • Competitive hourly rate (based on experience), plus performance incentives
  • All required Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) provided
  • Supportive management and a strong team culture
  • Ongoing training and development opportunities

If you're an experienced cleaner ready to take the next step, or an existing team leader looking for a new challenge, we'd love to hear from you. Join a hardworking, supportive team and take pride in maintaining the highest standards at Fresh Meats NZ.
