Food Manufacturing

£45,000 - £50,000

Here’s the truth: this role doesn’t exist yet.

No shoes to fill. No legacy to manage. Just a blank canvas. And we’re looking for someone bold enough to make it their own.

The business supplies all the major retailers and wants to be even better than it already is. That’s where you come in.

Your mission? Conduct a thorough gap analysis across the site, work closely with technical and quality managers, and identify where processes need tightening, improving, or reinventing.

Why now? 2026 is coming fast – bigger volumes, new products, new services, new facilities. Everything needs to be standardised and held to the highest account. The QMS is there, but it’ll need your scrutiny. If it’s not up to scratch, it’s your job to fix it.

Bonus points if you’ve dealt with a range of retailers and can keep up with their ever-changing requirements. Experience with Tesco or M&S? Even better.

Mostly office-based, sure. But you’ll need to be on the factory floor too – seeing the teams, the challenges, and making improvements where they matter most.

Who we’re looking for: a Quality Compliance Manager with a solid food manufacturing background, ideally with retailer-facing experience. Someone confident enough to own this newly created role and make an impact from day one.
