Company Description
We are FBC UK, Fox's Burton's Companies! ……And we bake the UK's most incredible biscuits (we might be slightly biased, but we will leave that for you to judge).
FBC UK was a match made in heaven, with two of the top UK biscuits manufacturers (Burton's Biscuits and Fox's Biscuits) coming together to create one unique, integrated company.
We are home to famous iconic brands, including Maryland, Fox's, Jammie Dodger & Rocky, to name just a few. We are proud manufacturing partners to some of the biggest UK retailers and household names. We bake our incredible biscuits at eight bakeries across the UK, located at Isle of Arran, Livingston, Blackpool, Llantarnam, Edinburgh, Kirkham, Batley & Dorset and our HQ in St Albans. Together, we employ circa 4,000 colleagues across all locations.
We are currently the second biscuit manufacturer in the UK market with a strong ambition of becoming UK Market Leader.
We know that our delicious products are only part of our success; our people and their passion for our brands are key. You could be the jammy to our Dodger, a party ring to our Fox’s, or a choc-chip to our Maryland! We seek innovative, entrepreneurial individuals committed to driving FBC UK forward.
We are dedicated to building an inclusive workforce that fosters a fulfilling and successful career. By embracing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), we create a supportive environment for all to thrive.
We value learning and growth, providing opportunities for professional and personal development through various learning experiences.
Our colleagues are what make our business special. With strong community values, we believe FBC UK is a more prosperous and enjoyable place to work when people can be themselves. We support authenticity, entrepreneurship, and mutual support while achieving our business goals.
