Job Description

Some Technical roles give you one small part of the job. This one gives you exposure to almost all of it.


Specifications. Auditing. Complaints. Food safety. Raw materials. Supplier approval. Testing. Customers.


If you're building a career in food Technical and want broader experience, this is a strong opportunity to do exactly that.


Working as part of an established Technical team, you'll support the day-to-day systems that keep products safe, legal and compliant.


You'll be involved in:

  • Maintaining raw material and finished product specifications
  • Internal GMP auditing
  • Supplier approvals and risk assessments
  • Customer complaints and technical queries
  • Microbiological and environmental testing
  • Food Safety and Quality Management Systems
  • Corrective actions and technical investigations
  • Supporting food safety and technical training


You don't need to have done everything already.


If you've gained experience within food manufacturing QA or Technical, understand HACCP and food safety systems, and want a role that gives you exposure beyond one specialist area, this could be a great next move.


This would particularly suit someone currently working as a QA, Senior QA, Technical Assistant, Technical Coordinator, Quality Coordinator or Technical Officer who is ready to broaden their experience and progress within Technical.
