• Ensure compliance with BRCGS and retailer standards.

• Good knowledge of HACCP, food safety, and quality systems.

• High attention to detail with strong communication skills.

• Ability to work independently and within a team.

• Flexibility to work different shifts if required.

• Basic IT skills (Excel, Word, Email).

• Above all: a willingness to learn and progress.
