Job Description

If you’ve ever found yourself as the go-to person for fixing the technical mess when others can't, keep reading. This chilled, fresh food site needs someone who isn’t afraid to get their hands dirty (but still passes the white glove test) to raise the bar, steady the ship, and drive quality.

Here’s what you’ll be up to:

Making sure every quality, safety, and legislative box is ticked. Every. Single. Time.
You’ll be the face (and voice) of the site when it comes to managing customer relationships and ensuring standards aren’t just met but exceeded.
Training, developing, and holding a team together that’s seen a lot of turnover recently. Think Quality Assurance, Compliance, Hygiene – the whole gang reports in to you.
Own the technical budget and have an eye for continuous improvement – no pointless KPIs here. We’re talking real, measurable change.
Roll up your sleeves on root cause investigations for any non-compliance. We’re after someone who’s as comfortable diving into data as they are leading from the front.
And yes, you’ll be bringing fresh ideas to audit programmes, health and safety, and the ever-growing challenge of change management.

The Basics We Need:

Experience in chilled food manufacturing? Check. Worked with the big retailers before? Even better.
Level 4 in HACCP and Food Safety – if this isn’t on your CV, this role isn’t for you.
Solid technical expertise in the premium end of food manufacturing – ideally, you know your way around Tesco PIU, and if you’ve tackled a BRC audit, that’s a big tick.
Strong communicator – we need someone who can stand their ground
A fixer, a mentor, a team builder. This isn’t about managing, it’s about leading.

Salary & Perks: £60-65k for the right person, on-site role with flexibility when needed. You’ll have direct reports (Quality Assurance, Compliance, and Hygiene Managers) and the authority to make things happen. And if you’re the kind of person who can spot an issue from a mile away, we want to hear from you
