About the Role

Mortadella Head is entering an exciting new phase of growth with the launch of our nationwide E-Commerce business, featuring frozen, chef-crafted lasagnas shipped across the country.

We’re seeking an experienced Production Manager to lead day-to-day operations in our Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) food production facility. This is a hands-on leadership role responsible for production execution, food safety, team management, inventory flow, and operational efficiency — from prep to freezer.

The right candidate has a strong food manufacturing background, thrives in fast-paced environments, and is excited to help scale a growing Direct To Consumer (DTC) food brand.

What You’ll Be Responsible ForProduction & Operations

Oversee daily production of frozen lasagnas from prep through freezing and storage
Build and manage production schedules aligned with E-Commerce demand and forecasts
Ensure product consistency, portion control, yield accuracy, and quality at scale
Improve workflows to increase efficiency, reduce waste, and control food costs
Maintain clean, organized, and efficient production spaces

Food Safety & Compliance

Enforce all food safety and sanitation standards (HACCP, FDA, USDA where applicable, local health codes)
Manage temperature logs, batch tracking, labeling, and lot control
Ensure proper freezing, storage, and cold-chain handling procedures
Lead health inspections, audits, and documentation
Train and retrain staff on food safety, sanitation, and SOPs

Team Leadership

Hire, train, schedule, and manage production staff
Lead from the floor — this is not a desk-only role
Develop and implement SOPs and training systems
Hold teams accountable to quality, safety, and performance standards
Foster a positive, productive, and team-oriented culture

E-Commerce & Fulfillment Coordination

Work closely with ecommerce, logistics, and shipping partners
Ensure accurate order fulfillment, packaging standards, and labeling
Align production timelines with shipping windows
Track inventory for ingredients, packaging, and finished goods
Support scaling efforts as nationwide demand grows

Reporting & Performance Metrics

Track production output, labor efficiency, food cost, waste, and yields
Monitor KPIs and identify opportunities for continuous improvement
Communicate production needs, risks, and wins clearly to leadership

Qualifications

Experience in food production, large commissary kitchens, or food manufacturing
Experience with frozen foods, prepared foods, or high-volume batch cooking strongly preferred
Experience supporting E-Commerce, DTC food brands, or national shipping a plus
Strong working knowledge of food safety, sanitation, and compliance
Proven ability to lead teams in fast-paced production environments
Organized, detail-oriented, and process-driven
Comfortable working hands-on in production when needed

Skills & Traits

Strong leadership and communication skills, bi-lingual English and Spanish a plus.
Ability to build scalable systems — not just manage daily tasks
Calm under pressure and solutions-oriented
Passion for food quality and operational excellence
Tech-comfortable (inventory systems, spreadsheets, production tracking tools, AI and food production automation equipment)

Compensation & Benefits

Competitive salary based on experience
Significant growth opportunity with a rapidly expanding E-Commerce brand
Employee discounts on Mortadella Head products
Opportunity to help build and lead a nationwide food operation from the ground up

Why Work at Mortadella Head?

Born from a love of the classics and an obsession with doing things right, we make everything the old-school way: authentic recipes, homemade processes, no shortcuts. From our kitchens in New England to customers across the country, we deliver food and hospitality that feel like family.

We’re a team of hustlers, makers, and dreamers who believe in making it nice — every tray, every sandwich, every customer interaction. We bring energy, optimism, and heart to the work, stay humble enough to keep learning, and keep getting better every day. As we grow from a few beloved brick-and-mortar spots into a national brand with thriving e-commerce, we’re building something special: a company powered by great people, great food, and a promise that everyone who connects with us feels like part of the family.
