  • Work closely with the Procurement team on planned Quarterly Performance Reviews and provide expert Food Safety and Quality Assurance (FSQA) support to all internal stakeholders.

  • Highly organised and logical, able to manage complex tasks and tight deadlines in a fast‑paced environment.
  • An exceptional communicator who can build constructive, effective relationships with stakeholders at all levels, both internally and externally.
  • An autonomous and decisive worker who quickly adapts to change, but is also comfortable and competent working in multiple cross‑functional team scenarios.
  • Detail‑oriented and a proactive problem‑solver, driven to achieve compliance with a "right first time" mentality.
  • Conscious of the ethical and environmental landscape within the supply chain.
  • What You’ll Get In Return
