What does your office smell like?
Stay with us…
If it doesn’t smell like cocoa, then maybe you’re in the wrong job. Imagine a chocolatey aroma every day… what’s not to love?
You won’t be on the production line making the chocolate, but you’ll be an integral part of the R&D team assisting in a variety of lab-based tasks.
Your duties will include; packing and distributing samples using the database system and supporting in the day to day activities in the Pilot lab, which includes producing & testing customer trials to a specification – using equipment such as Mixers, Refiners & conches – as well as the collection of raw materials from the factory.
Furthermore, you will be supporting in the day to day activities in the Application lab which includes working alongside R&D/Account managers/Customers to provide customer products & concept samples – using equipment such as Panners, One-shot, Enrobers, Spinners, Baking Ovens as well as hand tempering of various products.
We’re ideally looking for someone with a technical background who has the experience in a lab environment. This is by no means an absolute must as full training will be given, but it would be very beneficial. You will also have a relevant qualification to support your application.
The salary is on at £22,000 to £28,000 with 26 days holiday plus 8 bank holidays, so there’s plenty of ‘you time’ to be had… to enjoy your free chocolate. This role is for a 12 month FTC, with the possibility of going permanent.
