Food manufacturing recruitment support
Employment opportunities in the food manufacturing industry are varied, ranging from warehouse workers and engineers to HGV drivers, butchers and vets.
Food manufacturing recruitment has previously experienced significant labour shortages, but recently an increase in UK vacancies has risen. However, an increase in older workers and long-term illness has increased economic inactivity.
Our cost-free recruitment and training service can help you secure the best talent. All our candidates are industry trained and interview-ready.
How can we help you with food manufacturing recruitment?
When you partner with us, the candidates we put forward for your vacancies will have received in-depth employment support and sector-specific training.

The topics we cover give candidates an overview of the food production sector, exploring all the industries and functions within the sector. A key part of industry specific training is preparing our candidates with the skills and regulations required to work in the sector.
