Food Production Team Leaders
Sydney CBD | Lead a Small Team | Well Paid with Real Perks| Fortnightly Grocery Box
We're Feedwell, one of Sydney's fastest-growing fresh food catering businesses. We deliver thousands of meals daily to workplaces like Google, Amazon and Canva, but it's our kitchen crew that makes it happen; and we look after them properly.
We're hiring full-time Food Production Team Leaders - and we're open to people who already lead or those ready to step up and grow into the role to lead a small team of 2-4 people in our fresh food production kitchen. You'll be on the tools, side by side with the team, helping the shift run smoothly and making sure everything looks great, tastes fresh, and goes out on time.
This is a full-time, permanent job with set shifts. It's not casual work. You'll know exactly when you're working, what your role is, and what's expected. No last-minute roster changes, no chaos.
What the job actually involves
- Making fresh food each day to our specs - we'll show you exactly how
- Leading a small team of 2-4 during your shift, right there beside them
- Helping keep things moving, on time and calm
- Checking that food looks good and meets quality standards
- Keeping your section clean, organised, and safe
What You'll Get
We know how rare good team leaders are. When we find them, we look after them.
- Full-time, permanent job with fixed days and hours
- You'll be well paid
- Receive Feedwell's Grocery Box every fortnight to take home. Fresh produce and pantry items
- A meal on every shift
- Your birthday off - paid
- Peer-voted $50 vouchers each month to recognise great work
- A calm, respectful kitchen - no chaos, no yelling, no egos
What happens if you want to grow here
Not everyone wants to move up and we are fine with that. But if you do, we're the kind of place that says yes.
We have a clear pathway and training to move into roles like:
- Senior Team Leader
- Shift Supervisor
- Production Manager
- Or even into our Operations team, like some already have
Hear from some of the team
I started at Feedwell making sandwiches. I wasn't looking for anything more at the time. I just wanted to do a good job. Over time, they noticed that and gave me more responsibility. First I became a team leader, then a supervisor. I've learned a lot here, not just about food, but about how to work with people and lead calmly. It's a place that gives you a chance if you're willing to show up and do the work.
Oktaviana, now Packing Supervisor
When I joined Feedwell, I was working as a barista and was just looking for something steady. I didn't have a big plan. Over time, they gave me more responsibility, trusted me with new challenges, and supported me when I doubted myself. Now I lead operations across the whole business from kitchen production to logistics. It didn't happen overnight, but they always had my back, and that made the difference.
