Are you a Quality Manager who thrives on being out on the factory floor rather than behind a desk?
We're looking for an experienced Quality Manager to play a pivotal role within a fast-paced food manufacturing business. This is a hands-on leadership position where you'll work closely with Production, Engineering and Technical teams to drive food safety, quality standards and continuous improvement across the site.

What you'll be doing:
Leading and developing the Quality and Laboratory teams.
Driving GMP standards and promoting a positive food safety culture across the factory.
Supporting customer, BRC and third-party audits while ensuring ongoing compliance.
Managing customer complaints, root cause investigations and corrective actions.
Monitoring quality trends and using data to drive continuous improvement.
Supporting HACCP, VACCP and TACCP systems and ensuring they remain effective.
Working cross-functionally with Operations, Engineering and NPD to deliver quality improvements.
Deputising for the Technical Manager when required.
What we're looking for:
Previous experience in a Quality Manager or senior Quality role within food manufacturing.
Strong working knowledge of HACCP, food safety legislation and BRC standards.
Experience leading teams and influencing stakeholders across all levels of a manufacturing business.
A proactive approach to problem solving and continuous improvement.
Excellent communication and coaching skills.
Degree qualified in Food Science, Microbiology or a related discipline.
Laboratory experience would be advantageous but isn't essential.
