Hello! I’m the production manager and my role involves overseeing the quality and quantity of gifts being packed, plus ensuring they are packed to meet the demand for all online and corporate customers. My job role also includes scheduling when gifts are being packed across various different packing lines, making sure stock and packaging is ordered and received prior to packing the products.
What I like most about working at Hemingways is that the company is continuously growing and evolving. There is plenty of job variety across the business and a noticeably positive and desirable working atmosphere.
Hemingway’s has helped me to develop my communication skills and grow in confidence when managing others. Throughout my time here, I have also improved skills such as decision-making when forecasting packing orders to effectively and how to confidently oversee an ever growing gift packing team!
I would definitely recommend applying here, as since I started working here, I have seen the company expand and develop – there is always investment in new machinery to make the job more efficient and the directors have always been extremely helpful and supportive to me in my 15+ years that I have been part of the Hemingways team!
