Job description

Shift Supervisor Fill & Pack – Night Shift

Lead the team that keeps our filling and packaging operations running smoothly – with quality, safety and performance at the heart of every shift.

As Shift Supervisor Fill & Pack, you lead the day-to‑day filling and packaging activities within your shift, supported by an Assistant Supervisor.

You make sure your team has what it needs to perform at its best while keeping a close eye on quality, safety and productivity. From a smooth start‑up to the final packaged product, you keep people and operations moving in the right direction.

You report directly to the Production Manager.

What you will be doing

• Lead, support and motivate your team, setting the example when it comes to our procedures, standards and ways of working.
• Welcome and train new colleagues, making sure they get off to a strong start in GMP, safety, quality and hygiene.
• Organise clear communication within the team, including shift handovers, safety meetings and discussions on productivity and deviations.
• Coordinate and follow up the filling and packaging schedule and actively look for opportunities to improve productivity.
• Make sure our pharmaceutical and cosmetic products are filled and packed according to procedures, specifications and applicable quality and safety requirements.
• Ensure filling and packaging operations are started up correctly.
• Turn improvement opportunities into action across quality, productivity, safety and employee wellbeing.
• Follow up technical issues and changes to equipment, utilities and production areas.
• Keep reporting accurate and participate in daily production meetings to provide a clear view of your department’s performance.

Your formula for success

You enjoy taking the lead and getting the best out of a team. At the same time, you feel comfortable in a hands‑on production environment where quality and procedures matter.

Ideally:

• You have a bachelor’s degree in a relevant field and/or several years of experience in a supervisory role within a production environment.
• You’re motivated to lead, coach and develop a team.
• You communicate clearly and confidently.
• You have an affinity for technology and enjoy working in a dynamic production environment.
• You have an excellent command of Dutch, both spoken and written.

What's in it for you?

At Medgenix, you’ll join a Belgian company where your contribution is visible and where there’s room to take ownership, share ideas and grow.

For this role, you can count on:

• A permanent night shift with a predictable schedule.
• Monday to Thursday: 21:00–05:00.
• Friday: 19:00–02:00, so your weekend starts a little earlier.
• 12 additional ADV days per year.
• A varied leadership role combining people management and production.
• A workplace at our production site next to Wevelgem Airport, with easy accessibility.
• The opportunity to contribute to how we improve our production environment, rather than simply following the status quo.

Good work deserves a strong overall package. With fair pay, security, time to recharge and room to keep growing.

Fair pay, topped up with meal and eco vouchers and job-specific allowances where applicable.

Holidays and extra days off, in line with your work schedule.

We grow together. And we share in our success.

When we achieve our goals together, everyone gets to share in the success.

Hospitalisation insurance for when you need it, and group insurance for the future.

A good start, learning on the job and room to keep developing your skills.
