Job description

Welcome to Haleon. We’re a purpose-driven, world-class consumer company putting everyday health in the hands of millions. In just three years since our launch, we’ve grown, evolved and are now entering an exciting new chapter – one filled with bold ambitions and enormous opportunity.

Our trusted portfolio of brands – including Sensodyne®, Panadol®, Advil®, Voltaren®, Theraflu®, Otrivin®, and Centrum® – lead in resilient and growing categories. What sets us apart is our unique blend of deep human understanding and trusted science.

Now it’s time to fully realise the full potential of our business and our people. We do this through our Win as One strategy. It puts our purpose – to deliver better everyday health with humanity – at the heart of everything we do. It unites us, inspires us, and challenges us to be better every day, driven by our agile, performance-focused culture.

About The Role

As a Manufacturing Operator you’ll be part of the team that keeps our production lines running smoothly and safely. You’ll be hands‑on with equipment, materials, and products every day—setting up machines, monitoring production, fixing small issues when they come up, and making sure everything meets quality and safety standards. This role is ideal for someone who likes staying active, working with machinery, and taking ownership of their work area.

Role Responsibilities

• Run and monitor manufacturing equipment on your assigned line or work center
• Set up machines at the start of a run, make adjustments during production, and perform changeovers between products
• Clean equipment and work areas following GMP and safety guidelines
• Measure, weigh, inspect, and process materials to make sure products meet quality standards
• Keep an eye on how the process is running and catch issues early before they affect quality or output
• Perform basic troubleshooting and minor mechanical fixes during production
• Replace worn or non‑functioning parts when needed and replace larger issues to maintenance or technical teams
• Make sure materials and supplies are stocked and ready so production keeps moving
• Move materials safely using approved material‑handling equipment
• Accurately complete batch records, equipment logs, cleaning logs, and system entries (SAP/ERP) throughout your shift
• Follow written procedures (SOPs, GMPs, standard work) and ask questions anytime something isn’t clear
• Wear required PPE and follow all safety and environmental rules
• Report safety concerns, process issues, or quality problems right away
• Take part in required training and continue building skills so you can independently run multiple work centers
• Work closely with teammates, supervisors, and support teams to keep operations running smoothly

Why you?

Basic Qualifications

• A minimum of a HS Diploma or GED equivalent is required.
• A minimum of two years’ experience in production, mechanical troubleshooting, or related field is required.
• Must have basic computer skills: word processing, spreadsheets, and data entry.
• Must have strong attention to detail and the ability to create and follow detailed documentation.
• Must have ability to follow written instructions, standard operation procedures and verbal directions accurately.

Preferred Qualifications

• Prior experience in a regulated environment (GMP, Pharmaceutical, food or similar) is a plus.
• Prior work experience in manufacturing performing equipment set‑up and change-overs, or similar demonstrated experience in multi-system mechanical troubleshooting.
• Experience with a lean organization or other prior exposure to lean concepts, tools and techniques.
• Knowledge of PAS‑X, SAP, ProFicient, and/or FT_Batch computer systems.
• Ability to lift 5‑25 lbs. frequently and occasionally lift drums, bags and cases weighing up to 50 lbs.
• This position requires the regular use of various PPE including but not limited to the following: bump cap, safety shoes, safety glasses, gloves and N95 or PAPR. All required PPE will be provided.
• Team oriented and flexible, able to adapt to changing assignments
• Highly motivated and self‑driven with a desire to continuously improve own skill set. Able to function productively with minimal supervision.
