Production Supervisor

Production Supervisor – Ponut

We’re looking for a hands-on, disciplined, and target-driven Production Supervisor who understands that consistent production performance is critical to the growth of Ponut.

This role is more than just supervising the production team. You will be responsible for ensuring that our daily bakery production runs efficiently, consistently, safely, and according to target — from raw materials and preparation to production, quality control, and finished products.

If you are a strong and disciplined leader, understand bakery production, enjoy working with numbers and data, and are not afraid to take ownership and solve problems directly on the production floor, we’d love to meet you.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Drive Daily Production Performance – Ensure daily production runs according to production plans, schedules, SOPs, quality standards, and targeted output.
• Lead the Production Team – Manage manpower planning, task delegation, shift briefing, attendance, operator performance, and daily work allocation to ensure efficient workforce utilization.
• Manage Bakery Production Processes – Ensure production processes are executed consistently according to approved recipes, production methods, specifications, and quality standards.
• Maintain Product Consistency – Ensure consistency in product size, weight, texture, appearance, taste, and overall product quality across every production batch.
• Monitor Production Data – Track and analyze productivity, production achievement, and material usage to identify problems and improvement opportunities.
• Solve Production Problems – Identify issues on the production floor, conduct root cause analysis, and implement corrective actions quickly to minimize production disruptions.
• Coordinate Equipment & Maintenance – Monitor the condition of production equipment and coordinate with Engineering/Maintenance regarding machine breakdowns, repairs, and preventive maintenance.
• Maintain Accurate Production Reports – Prepare daily and periodic production reports and ensure all production data is accurate, complete, and useful for management decision-making.
• Maintain Discipline on the Production Floor – Ensure team members follow SOPs, work standards, hygiene requirements, and production targets consistently.

REQUIREMENTS

• Hold a Diploma or Bachelor’s degree in related field.
• Minimim 1 years of experience in production supervision, preferably in bakery, F&B manufacturing, Central kitchen, or similar industries.
• Have a strong understanding of bakery production processes, preferably including dough preparation, mixing, fermentation/proofing, frying/baking, finishing, packing, and finished goods handling.
• Understand the importance of recipe consistency, production efficiency, and product quality.
• Have experience managing production manpower, including task delegation, shift briefing, attendance, discipline, and operator performance.
• Are comfortable working with production data and numbers.
• Are proficient in Microsoft Excel / Google Sheets for production monitoring, data analysis, and reporting.
• Have strong problem-solving and root cause analysis skills.
• Have strong communication, coordination, and decision-making skills.
• Are detail-oriented, proactive, organized, and highly target-driven.
• Are comfortable working in a fast-paced, high-volume production environment.
• Are willing to work closely with the production team and spend significant time on the production floor
• Experience in high-volume bakery or central kitchen production will be highly preferred.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

• We’re not looking for someone who only knows how to supervise people.
• We’re looking for someone who can lead people, understand the product, read the numbers, and solve problems.

WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS

• Ponut is growing, and as our business grows, our production operation needs to grow with it.
• Behind every Ponut product that reaches our customers consistently is a production team that works with discipline, precision, speed, and consistency.
• As a Production Supervisor, you will play an important role in building a stronger production operation — ensuring we can increase capacity, maintain product consistency, control production costs, minimize waste, and deliver the right quantity at the right time.

This is an opportunity for someone who wants to take real ownership of operations and grow together with a fast-growing F&B brand.

If you are ready to lead from the floor, work with data, solve problems, and build a high-performing production team, we’d love to hear from you.
