Job Description

Food Compliance Manager

Hertfordshire

£28,000 - £40,000

Food Compliance Manager role for a business that truly invests in their staff.

We assisted the Technical Manager in this large international food business a few years ago. During this time they have developed their skills and knowledge with the help of the company supporting and funding their Masters degree. This should give you a flavour of how this organisation invests in their staff, loyalty is a two-way street.

If you’re serious about your own career development, here you will be working alongside this supportive Technical Manager who will encourage, coach and mentor you to develop your technical skills and know how.

You will be the Technical Manager’s right hand, deputising in their absence and driving through high quality and technical standards across the factory. It’s a tight-knit, supportive team who navigate challenges with a mix of expertise, professionalism and a ready humour to diffuse any ‘oh uh’ moments!

We’re looking for potential. Someone who has a good grounding in food safety and quality. You could be a QA Supervisor ready for the next step, with internal auditing experience and used to working to BRC standards. With two direct reports, you’ll create development opportunities for them through coaching and encouragement.

It’s a highly varied role; working with NPD to conduct taste panels, organoleptic assessments, leading the HACCP team, developing and mentoring the line QAs, developing and leading the GMP. In other words, it’s a 360 degree quality role with plenty of variety to keep you busy.

This arm of the business is based at a small manufacturing facility in Hertfordshire. The business is part of a global parent company where you’ll have access to development opportunities across the Group.

Please apply to this role today (please note this role is unable to provide visa sponsorship).
