  • Contributing to the continuous improvement of our Quality Management System through participation in HACCP reviews, including CCP and QCP validation
  • Investigating customer complaints and internal corrective action requests then assisting with the development of preventive actions
  • Generating relevant reports and supporting with project work as and when required
What you’ll bring to the role?
  • 2 - 3 years’ experience in a Quality Assurance role in a food/pharmaceutical manufacturing environment

  • Exposure to HACCP and Internal Audit Training (and knowledge of relevant systems)
  • Confidence using MS Office products including Excel, Word, and Power Point (extra tick if you have used Power Apps)
  • Excellent written/verbal communication and relationship building skills – you work well in a team and can influence others when needed!
  • A passion for sharing your knowledge with others.
  • Exceptional organisation skills – you’re a pro at juggling multiple balls and can easily jump between tasks.
  • Accountability – you own your decisions and can be counted on to do what you say you will.
  • Positivity, self-motivation, and a solutions-focused approach– you see road bumps as a challenge, not a disaster!
  • An innovative, inquisitive approach and ‘out of box thinking’.
  • An eagerness to learn and develop your career with us!

What can you expect in return? You can expect to be part of a supportive, purpose driven team where you'll feel valued, have flexible working options, genuine growth opportunities, commitment to our community partnerships and a focus on wellness!
