This is a hands-on Quality Assurance role within a fast-paced food manufacturing environment where standards, pace, and attention to detail genuinely matter.
You’ll be working directly on the factory floor, supporting production teams to ensure products consistently meet food safety, legal, and customer requirements.
This isn’t a “tick-box” QA role, you’ll be expected to take ownership, challenge where needed, and play an active part in maintaining site standards.
What You’ll Be Doing
* Carrying out factory floor audits, inspections, and quality checks
* Ensuring compliance with HACCP, GMP, and food safety standards
* Supporting BRC / audit readiness and traceability processes
* Monitoring Critical Control Points (CCPs) and escalating issues
* Working closely with production to prevent issues, not just react to them
* Completing accurate documentation and maintaining high standards of record keeping
* Driving a “right first time” culture across the site
What We’re Looking For
* Experience in a food manufacturing environment (essential)
* HACCP Level 3 (essential)
* Food Safety Level 3 (essential)
* Strong understanding of GMP, hygiene, and compliance standards
* Highly organised, with strong attention to detail
* Confident communicating with production teams and challenging where needed
* A proactive, go-getter attitude — someone who takes ownership rather than waiting to be told
* Comfortable working in a fast-paced, high-volume environment
Why This Role?
* Opportunity to work in a well-structured, high-performing site
* A role where QA is taken seriously, not treated as an afterthought
* Real scope to add value and develop within the technical team
* Supportive environment with clear expectations and standards
