* £15 per hour up to 39 hours
* £19 per hour overtime rate

What You'll Need

* Experience in a packhouse, fresh produce, or fast-paced food manufacturing environment.
* Strong people-management skills with confidence leading large, multicultural teams.
* A hands-on approach, someone who leads from the front.
* Proactive mindset with eagerness to learn and take on new challenges.
* Ability to stay organised and calm in high-volume seasonal peaks.
* Experience with machinery such as Proseal is a bonus.
