Here at The Silver Spoon Company, we are more than just sugar. We have an exciting portfolio of brands that support the Home Baking, Sweetening & Treats categories and a vision to become the true home of home baking in the eyes of our customers and consumers. This role will be key in supporting our Supply Team in meeting this vision.
As an inclusive employer we strive to create an environment where everyone can bring their best self to work and be supported to deliver so that we can all celebrate a successful growing business together.
We are looking for a Packaging Operator with a FLT licence to join our team on the night shift at The Silver Spoon Company in Stortford. In this role, you will be responsible for operating our packing lines safely and efficiently to produce high-quality finished products that meet our standards and exceed customer expectations.
You will be expected to follow all site procedures, including those related to health, safety, environmental, and food safety. You will accurately record operational data, carry out basic fault finding, and escalate any issues to the Line Manager in a timely manner.
You will also support internal and external audits by demonstrating food-safe manufacturing practices. As part of your role, you may be involved in project teams and continuous improvement initiatives. Flexibility is key, as you will be required to cover team breaks and work additional hours when needed to meet production demands.
Effective communication during shift handovers and a willingness to support other duties on site are also essential parts of this role.
We are seeking a proactive and adaptable individual who thrives in a fast-paced manufacturing environment. You should have strong communication skills and a keen eye for detail, especially when it comes to recording information accurately.
You will be expected to demonstrate key competencies such as adaptability, planning and analysis, communication, operational decision-making, customer focus, and a drive for results.
While previous experience in food manufacturing is preferred, full training will be provided. Ideally, you will have an awareness of HACCP and GMP standards. If you are looking for a hands-on role in a supportive team environment where you can make a real impact, we would love to hear from you.
