Join the future of Sustainable Manufacturing at reTyre!

At reTyre, you’re not just joining a company — you’re joining a groundbreaking industrial journey.

We’ve built the world’s first sustainable tire factory, right in the heart of Ski (15 min outside Oslo), and we are now looking for a skilled Operational Production Team Leader to join the team and drive our mission forward. 

Our factory uses a revolutionary production method that makes it possible to replace traditional rubber in pneumatic tires with new, sustainable materials.

Our team is young, energetic, and united by a passion for innovation, sustainability, and success. Every day, we challenge the conventional and push the boundaries of what manufacturing can be.

The role

This role will be responsible for coordinating the day to day operations of production, as well as managing the production line employees. 

In addition, the role will be actively involved in the daily production to have hands on experience with machinery and production methods to be proactive in decision making and be an expert resource for the team.

You’ll work closely with your colleagues in Manufacturing, and also our R&D engineering team who build and refine a new global standard for tire production.

We currently operate on a 2-shift schedule:

• Morning: 08:00–16:00
• Evening: 15:00–23:00

What You’ll Do

You will play a key role in leading the day-to day production, including:

• Leading and coordinating all daily production operations.
• Leading, developing, and managing the production team-members.
• Coordinate time and staffing schedules according to production plans.
• Resource allocation on work stations for optimized work-flows.
• Hiring, training, and further developing team members' skills.
• Quality control of products and work processes.
• Reporting on KPIs and other documentation.
• Developing and following up on HSE procedures.
• Operating machines in the production line.
• Adjusting machines for product changes.
• Reporting deviations, conditions, and improvement opportunities as well as solving relevant deviations.
• Machine maintenance.

You will also have the opportunity to get experience and contribute in major development initiatives in 2026 — automation, new machinery, process optimization, and ongoing improvement projects we have planned for the upcoming period.

Who We’re Looking For

You are experienced in a Manufacturing/Production and feel confident entering this role with your exsisting skillsets. You find it motivating to be a part of a Company's journey going from startup to scaleup, that offers a different kind of environment than other typical traditional manufacturing companies offer.

• Possess technical skills in machinery and have a hands-on approach.
• Hold a Class B driver’s license.
• Ability to communicate clearly in English (written and spoken) as this is our primary work language.
• Good IT literacy, familiar with use of computers, control panels on machinery and production software.
• Have experience with proactive HSE work. 

Experience matters — but so does attitude and other relevant skillsets.

Your personal qualities

• A confident leader, comfortable with personnel responsibility and knowledgeable in building and maintaining a strong team environment.
• Proactive and solution-oriented, unafraid to take initiative and tackle unexpected challenges.
• Precise and organized, yet flexible, someone who has full control over department activities and can quickly adapt to new demands.
