    Job Description

    Joud Coffee is a fast‑growing, homegrown specialty café brand in UAE with 18 outlets. Our Central Production Unit (CPU) produces finished and semi‑finished components (sauces, bases, prepped ingredients, dessert components, etc.) to enable consistent quality and speed in our cafés. We are building a CPU that runs with manufacturer‑level discipline: standardized recipes, documented production, controlled release, and reliable cold‑chain dispatch.

    The Role (clear mission)

    We are hiring a CPU Manager to run day‑to‑day CPU operations and ensure outlets receive CPU products that are:

    • consistent and in‑spec
    • properly labeled with batch/expiry
    • packed and dispatched within cold‑chain requirements
    • delivered on time and in full

    This is an operational leadership role. You will spend most of your time on the floor, leading production, packing, and dispatch with tight routines and strong accountability.

    Important Clarification
    • This role is about execution and system discipline, not menu creativity.
    • Culinary standards (recipes/specs/plating intent) will be set in partnership with Culinary Leadership; your job is to produce to spec and release only conforming product.
    Scope
    • CPU supplies 18 outlets
    • Team includes CPU production staff + packing + dispatch support
    • You will work closely with:
      • Outlet sous chefs (receiving + feedback)
      • Culinary leadership / Executive Chef (standards + improvements)
      • Operations / logistics (dispatch scheduling)
      • (Phase 2/3) Finance / cost control (inventory & revenue‑center controls)
    Key Responsibilities
    • Production Planning & Fulfilment (OTIF discipline)
    • Convert outlet demand into a weekly production plan and daily execution schedule.
    • Build and maintain pars for key SKUs (minimum stock levels).
    • Ensure production is ready ahead of dispatch cut‑off times.
    • Deliver On‑Time, In‑Full (OTIF) to outlets with minimal substitutions and misses.
    • Implement and enforce a strict release gate for every batch: master recipe cards, batch production records, product spec & release sheet, hold/release/reject log.
    • Maintain retention samples per batch and a feedback loop by batch code when outlets report issues.
    • Enforce HACCP discipline and hygiene routines (pre‑op checks, cleaning schedules, sanitation).
    • Ensure correct handling of cooked products: controlled cooking checkpoints, controlled cooling procedure and logs, correct chilled storage.
    • Ensure cold‑chain compliance at packing and dispatch.
    • Standardize packing process: correct tub/bag, correct fill weights, correct sealing.
    • Ensure label accuracy (product name, batch, production date, expiry).
    • Dispatch only released stock and protect product integrity in transport.
    • Run daily routines: pre‑shift briefing, mid‑shift checks, end‑of‑day handover.
    • Hold people accountable: repeat errors must stop.
    • Continuous Improvement: reduce defects, stabilize output, track top defects, implement corrective actions with owners and deadlines, reduce waste and rejects.
    Requirements (must have)
    • Team leadership with ability to build discipline in a mixed‑skill team.
    • Experience running a CPU / central kitchen / commissary / high‑volume prep facility.
    • Strong operational control in planning, batching, packing, dispatch.
    • Strong hygiene and food safety discipline (HACCP experience).
    • Proven ability to lead a team and enforce standards (not just "manage").
    • Comfortable with basic reporting (Excel/Sheets). ERP experience is a plus.
    • Strong English communication (Arabic is a plus).
    • Experience using photos, checklists, simple pass/fail rules to train teams.
    Preferred (nice to have)
    • Experience supplying multiple outlets (multi‑unit support).
    • Experience building documentation systems (recipe cards, BPRs, release logs).
    • Experience improving weak teams using "photo + checklist" training methods.
