Full Job Description

Quality and food safety will be at the heart of this specialist role, and as such it is a hands-on position. Key duties will include:

  • Setting up, cleaning down and operating milk and cream filling equipment while maintaining efficiency standards

  • Maintaining and monitoring quality through Company standards; maintaining excellent levels of health, safety and hygiene

  • Packing finished products on the end of the line ready to send through to distribution

    Experience of working in food production as a machine operative would be ideal, however candidates who are proactive with the ability to work accurately and with precision in a fast-paced environment will also be considered in a trainee role which will prepare you for full time work as a Machine Operative (salaries are banded based on experience). We also have entry-level roles as Production Operatives, which provides a strong base for moving into Machine Operator roles in the future

    Due to food hygiene regulations only one solid wedding band is permitted. Earrings, studs, bracelets, necklaces, makeup, strong smelling deodorants or perfumes are not permitted in the production area
