You may not have heard of us, but there’s a good chance you’ve enjoyed our products. Avara Foods is one of the UK’s leading food businesses, supplying chicken and turkey to major supermarkets and well-known restaurants.

We own and manage our entire supply chain, from farms to factory and all the way to the customer door – meaning we have careers that cover a whole range of functions. We have major processing sites across England and Wales, and an agricultural network of over 350 farms, spanning from North Yorkshire to the South Coast and Wales.

A little about our Hereford site:

The Hereford plant is our largest site and processes chicken products across two factory facilities, Grandstand Road and Yazor Road. Grandstand handles processing, whole bird production, and portioning, with Yazor responsible for portioning and added value. Approximately 1,500 people are employed across the site, which processes 1.9 million birds per week.

After you’ve applied, you’ll be contacted in due course by a Resourcing Officer from our Hereford site, to discuss your application and CV further. There’ll also be a chance for you to ask us any questions you may have about the role.
