About the position

As a team leader you have the daily management responsibility for part of the production and the employees at our facility in Herlev. You are a visible leader, present on the floor, close to operations and close to the employees.

We believe the best leadership happens where the work is performed. Therefore we expect you to have a high degree of presence in production and be available to the employees in daily operations.

You must create an overview, ensure high quality and stable deliveries, and be a natural sparring partner for the employees. You actively work on developing both people and processes and contribute to strong collaboration across shifts, professional groups and our two facilities.

An important part of the role is daily board rounds and participation in Tier meetings, where you follow up on production, quality, staffing, safety and improvement initiatives. You actively use data to prioritize efforts and ensure progress.

• Visible leadership with a high presence on the floor

• Collaborate closely with other team leaders, section heads and other partners
• Contribute to a close collaboration between Rigshospitalet and Herlev Hospital

We expect that you

• Are a visible and approachable leader who thrives among the staff
• Have the possibility to work in mixed day and evening shifts, with a main focus on evening shifts
• Can create an overview and stay calm in a busy daily life
