Job Description
The Urban Fermentery makes kimchi, pickles and fermented foods from a BRCGS-certified site in Suffolk.
Seven figures of revenue.
Multinational supermarkets.
A bigger site incoming and a plan to 4x the business to eight figures in the next twelve months.
We need someone to own it end to end: production, planning, quality, supply chain, people, cost and capex, the site move, and the new ranges coming behind it.
Three experienced managers reporting in Technical, Production, and Operations & Planning — and the founder working alongside you, not over you.
We're not after a caretaker. We want the operator who's already run a site through a step-change like this, or the number two who's been itching to run the whole board.
Competitive salary and bonus and for the right person, a real conversation about equity. If you're going to build this with us, you should own a piece of it.
Suffolk, on-site, full-time. If that's your kind of challenge, drop me a message.
