Production Foreman

**Production Foreman / Productie Voorman**

We are immediately looking for an enthusiastic cooperating production foreman with experience in production. We are growing like crazy and are looking for a real go-getter who will help us achieve this growth in an efficient way. Are you a real people person and do you have experience in managing a team and do you like to get your hands dirty? Then read on quickly.

**What Are You Going To Do**:
No day is the same with us, you are not part of a machine here but a valuable member of our most important department within Natural Heroes. You manage a team that makes our product "from scratch" like an artisan baker does. The production team that you are part of, is in contact with all our natural products on a daily basis and does tasks such as; filling clay, kneading and cutting soap, mixing balms, filling bottles with essential oils and melting and pouring shea and cocoa butter. You are the ears and eyes of the production manager and ensure that everything is carried out according to plan and goals are achieved. In addition, you also participate in the production and you are the expert of all our work processes in no time.

**Your tasks at a glance**:

- Supervising the production process;
- Managing and training colleagues;
- Troubleshooting minor faults in machines and equipment;
- Performing administrative tasks;
- Ensuring that work is carried out in a lean manner;
- Participate in production.
- Preparing, packaging, and filling our products;
- Operating our machines and boilers;
- Quality control on incoming and outgoing goods.

**We Work "LEAN"**

What is Lean? Lean is the reduction of "waste".

**Examples of waste**:

- You have to walk back and forth several times to grab something, while you can also put it down next to you;
- Or you notice that you have to bend down all the time to grab something;
- Or that you are turning a cap that is stiff;
- Or that the filling machine is not running smoothly.

In short, lean is everything that causes irritation and slowness in your work. And these are all things that you can bring up and that will be dealt with. Also, if you have a brilliant solution for something, it will be implemented immediately. We find your input super valuable. With Lean working, you actually ensure that the work becomes more fun, and that you get even more satisfaction from your work.

**Who We Are?**

We work in a small but incredibly driven team, partly remote and partly in the office. The working atmosphere is similar to that of a startup. You are the foundation of our organization. Everything starts at the source and in our case that is our production.

We are a social enterprise founded in 2016 with the goal to make healthy & sustainable living simple and fun. Our focus is on clean beauty; as many vegan, natural and truth-based products for personal care as possible. With our DIY packages you can make your own deodorant, body lotion, toothpaste and lip balm.

We stand for quality first, openness and transparency, a sustainable way of thinking, with a high degree of responsibility, but most of all: good vibes. Our core purpose is _"inspiring people to become Superhuman through natural products, sustainable initiatives and self-development"._
