Technical Manager
Food Manufacturing
East Riding of Yorkshire
£65,000 - £70,000
If you're the kind of Technical Manager who gets their kicks from ticking boxes and hiding behind procedures... this probably isn’t for you.
Because this isn’t one of those “keep the wheels turning” jobs. It’s not about quietly managing a HACCP folder and hoping the auditor smiles at you once a year.
This is a leadership role. Not in the brochure-speak way. In the real, “people look to you when things go wrong” kind of way.
Your job? Make sure what leaves this site is consistently brilliant, safe, and the standards are to that of the strictest retailers.
The company?
A well-established food manufacturer, known across the UK for doing things properly. Not flashy. Just solid, smart, and serious about quality.
They want someone who understands that being ‘technical’ isn’t just about standards — it’s about culture. You’ll be part of the site leadership team, shaping that culture and leading a technical team that doesn’t need to be micromanaged, just inspired.
Oh, and you'll also be the face of the company to their customers when it comes to technical matters. So if you get scared at the thought of a supplier meeting, you might want to hit the back button now.
Still reading? Good.
Here’s what you’ll need to bring to the table:
• Significant Food Manufacturing experience
• A degree in something scientific or food-related.
• Leadership — not just the title, but the track record
• An eye for detail that borders on obsessive (in a good way)
So, if you're interested then apply below and I’ll reach out for a confidential conversation
Worst case? We’ll have a decent chat.
Best case? You get a role where what you do actually matters
