About The Role

Most food safety roles focus on maintaining what's already there.

This one is different.

We're a business in transformation, evolving from a single-brand, single-channel business into a multi-brand, multi-channel nutrition platform. As we expand our brands, products, customers and routes to market, maintaining robust food safety standards becomes more important than ever.

That's where you come in.

We're looking for a Food Safety Systems Specialist to become the driving force behind our Food Safety Management System, someone who enjoys bringing structure to complexity, improving processes, influencing standards and ensuring food safety remains embedded in everything we do.

This isn't a role hidden away behind documentation and audits. You'll work across the business, partnering with colleagues from Operations, Supply Chain, Product Development and Leadership to ensure our systems not only remain compliant, but continue to evolve alongside the business.

If you're looking for an opportunity where you can take genuine ownership, influence how food safety is managed, and play a visible role in supporting business growth, we'd love to hear from you.

Location: Onsite in Corby, Northants
Role Type: Permanent, Full Time

What will I be doing?
This is a highly visible role that sits at the heart of our Technical function, working closely with colleagues across Operations, Supply Chain, Product Development and the wider business.

You'll take ownership of our Food Safety Management System (FSMS), ensuring it remains effective, compliant, audit-ready and capable of supporting a growing and increasingly diverse business.

You'll be responsible for maintaining and continually improving the systems, documentation, governance and processes that underpin food safety across the organisation. From coordinating internal audits and managing corrective actions through to supporting HACCP reviews and maintaining BRCGS compliance, you'll help ensure we remain proactive rather than reactive.

You'll also become a key point of coordination across the business, working with stakeholders at all levels to ensure food safety remains embedded in everyday decision-making and operational activity.

Additionally, you will:

Manage document control, procedures, policies and food safety records
Lead the internal audit programme, including planning, tracking and follow-up actions
Facilitate food safety meetings and monitor key food safety performance indicators
Coordinate traceability exercises and food safety verification activities
Maintain training matrices and lead food safety training initiatives
Support supplier assurance activities, audits and performance reviews
Analyse food safety data and provide meaningful insight to stakeholders
Partner with operational teams to identify opportunities for continuous improvement

Am I the right person for this role?
We're looking for someone who combines strong technical knowledge with a practical, collaborative approach. Ideally, with Level 3 qualifications in HACCP and Food Safety and understanding of BRCGS standards.

You may already be working in a Food Safety Systems, Quality Systems, Technical Systems, Compliance or Technical Coordinator role and be looking for an opportunity where you can take greater ownership and influence.

You'll bring:

Experience working within a food manufacturing environment operating to a recognised food safety standard
Strong knowledge of food safety systems, compliance and auditing processes
Experience coordinating or maintaining food safety and/or quality management systems
Knowledge of HACCP principles and food safety risk management
Internal auditing experience and confidence conducting audits independently
Excellent organisation and document control skills
