Why join us? We're proud to offer you a career with a global leader in the fresh prepared food industry. We're proud to give everyone the opportunity and support to develop and progress their career. To nurture talent, fuel ambition and work with resilience and purpose to achieve the highest possible standards. What we do. We're the market leader in the UK fresh prepared food industry - supplying meals, salads, desserts, pizza and bread to leading grocery retailers including Tesco, M&S, Sainsbury's and Waitrose. Our Bakkavor site in Highbridge, which is one of our four Desserts sites in the UK, specialises in Cheesecake and Tarts, working closely with our sister site in Devizes that specialise in baked goods. About the role. Working as part of a wider team of QA Auditors and reporting directly in to our Quality Assurance Supervisors, you will play a key role in ensuring that our site continues to meet all quality and technical standards set nationally and by our grocery retailer partners. As one of our QA Auditors, you will audit, monitor, improve and evaluate quality systems and procedures and provide technical support for the operational teams as well as maintaining and promoting technical and quality standards in line with business needs and customer requirements will be a key focus. In this position you will work on a permanent day shift which will include some weekend working as set by the rota. As well as welcoming applications from candidates from a quality or technical background, we would also like to encourage applications from candidates who have operational or line experience within food production/manufacturing who wish to develop their career. If you have excellent attention to detail, are process driven and can use your initiative to prioritise your workload and problem solve we would like to hear from you. Full training on internal quality processes is provided to the successful candidate. Role Accountabilities:
Ideally you will have some professional experience within a similar Technical/QA role in a food environment, but skills can be taught and if you have the enthusiasm and drive to develop within quality assurance this is an excellent first role. Understanding the chain of custody within the food environment and a background of working on small to mid-sized quality improvement projects, such as implementing new procedures and defining new supporting documentation - will be key. You will be an excellent communicator who can work alone with a proactive and innovative approach to problem solving. You will always adopt a thorough and diligent approach to every task and you will be able to demonstrate our key values of customer care, can-do, teamwork and not just getting it right but keeping it right. What you'll receive. As an equal opportunity employer, we're committed to providing a safe and rewarding environment for you to thrive in. This is why we work hard to deliver benefits, rewards and wellbeing offerings that are important to you.
