* Maintaining high standards of food safety, hygiene and GMP
* Supporting audits and acting as a key contact during visits
* Managing KPIs, waste control and continuous improvement initiatives

You don't need experience - just the right attitude and approach. We're looking for someone who:
* Is fluent in written and spoken English (essential for documentation and communication)
* Has strong attention to detail and organisational skills
* Is a confident communicator, able to build trust and lead a large team
* Can work proactively and stay calm under pressure
* Is flexible and reliable - happy to cover shifts or step in when needed
* Is comfortable working in a fast-paced chilled production environment
* No prior experience required - full training and qualifications provided!
What's in it for you
* A clear path into operational leadership within one of the UK's leading poultry producers
* Full support and development - including on-the-job training and formal qualifications
* A chance to work in a high-performing, structured team with real responsibility from day one
* A shift pattern that offers great work-life balance (4 days per week, early finish)
What to expect from us
* A straightforward, single-stage interview process onsite with the Hiring Manager
* A factory tour so you can see exactly what the role involves
* A friendly, driven team who value hard work, honesty, and a positive attitude
