Summary

Are you looking for a hands-on role where you can help keep production running smoothly and safely?

At our Batley site, we’re looking for a Process Operative who can follow clear instructions, stay focused on quality, and keep our equipment and processes on track. If you’re reliable, detail driven, and ready to work in a fast paced environment where hygiene and safety come first, this could be the ideal role for you.

Working alongside experienced colleagues in a supportive and collaborative environment, you'll have the opportunity to develop a broad range of manufacturing skills while gaining valuable exposure to different areas of the production process.

Working a rotating dayshift pattern, you'll alternate between early and late shifts while enjoying a consistent Monday to Friday schedule of 7am - 2.30pm & 2.30pm - 10.00pm. With ongoing investment in our people, facilities, and future growth plans, this is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to build a long-term career within food manufacturing.

Check and set recipes, programs, and safety guards before start-up, ensuring all equipment is safe, ready, and compliant.

Monitor production lines by checking conveyors, refilling hoppers, maintaining chocolate flow, and reporting any issues early.

Carry out regular quality checks, including colour and product standards, while keeping your workspace clean, safe, and well organised.
