As assistant team leader, you will be the team leader's right-hand man. You are active on the shop floor, monitor the process and ensure that the daily work runs according to plan. In doing so, you have contact with your team members as well as with other departments.

Typical tasks of an assistant team leader are:

  • Assisting in managing employees
  • Participate in the production or logistics process
  • Identifying bottlenecks and reporting these to the team leader
  • Supervising quality, safety and work pace
  • Training new colleagues
  • Deputising in the absence of the team leader

So you are not only executing tasks, but you are also responsible for oversight and management. This role is ideal for those wishing to progress to a fully-fledged managerial position.

Where can you work as an assistant team leader?

The assistant team leader position is common in industries where work is done in teams or production lines. Think of:

  • Logistics centres and warehouses
  • Production companies (food, metal, plastic, etc.)
  • Technical assembly departments
  • Distribution and transport

In these environments, cooperation is crucial. You make sure everyone knows what needs to be done and motivate the team to achieve the best result together.

Why choose the position of assistant team leader?

This position offers an excellent balance between executive work and leadership. You will remain active in operations but will also have the opportunity to develop leadership skills. Benefits at a glance:

  • Lots of variety in tasks
  • Good supervision and induction programme
  • Opportunities to progress to team leader or supervisor
  • Working in a dynamic, hands-on environment
  • Additional responsibilities with appropriate remuneration

Moreover, many employers find it important to further train their assistant team leaders internally. So you can count on attention to your development.

What do employers expect from an assistant team leader?

You do not need to have years of managerial experience yet, but it is important that you have the ambition to be responsible. Employers are especially looking for people who:

  • Are proactive and take initiative
  • Collaborate and communicate well
  • Keep an overview, even under pressure
  • Work accurately and result-oriented
  • Are flexible in working hours and commitment
