About the Role

You'll be part of a hands-on production team, processing meats through each stage of the line from raw stock to packed, palletised product ready for delivery. Full training is provided, including on the band saw, so previous meat-processing experience is a bonus but not essential.

  • Follow HACCP and food safety protocols at all times
  • Carry out routine quality checks and monitor consistency on the line
  • Keep work areas, tools and equipment clean and hygienic
  • Accurately record production data, including output and any deviations
  • Work closely with the team to hit daily production targets

What We're Looking For

  • Experience in a food production or manufacturing environment preferred
  • Band saw experience desirable but not required - training provided
  • Basic maths for measuring and recording
  • Good communication and teamwork skills
  • A proactive, safety-first attitude and willingness to learn

Why Apply

  • Immediate start, ongoing hours
  • Competitive pay at £13.27/hour
  • Genuine route to a permanent role
  • Full training provided - no experience necessary to apply
