There are 2 roles available, working under different shift patterns, either Monday to Friday 05:00–14:30 or 12:30–22:00.
We are looking for a highly organised, proactive individual who thrives under pressure and takes pride in their work. You will need a strong blend of practical knowledge, administrative accuracy and leadership capabilities to succeed in this expert role.
Joining Danish Crown means stepping into a role where you are trusted with true autonomy over your area, empowering you to make a tangible impact on our daily operations. As the designated expert in the yard, your decisions and leadership will directly influence the smooth running of our factory and the success of the wider site. We foster a working environment that values continuous improvement, ensuring that your contributions to departmental projects are recognised and celebrated.
We are deeply committed to your career growth and personal development, providing ongoing support and opportunities, such as training you to obtain your shunter licence.

Here, your hard work translates into meaningful progress, both for the business and for your own professional journey.
Danish Crown UK is a business built on trust, teamwork and ambition. We exist to deliver food that people believe in, and we know that takes strong leadership and a collaborative culture.
Our leadership principles guide us. We act for the good of the whole organisation. We hire brilliant people and help them grow. We are ambitious, curious and open to new ideas. We build trust by accepting mistakes as part of development. We believe real leadership is earned through example, not title.
Whoever joins us will help create a workplace where people feel safe to speak up, share ideas, challenge old ways of working and stretch themselves to achieve more. If that sounds like an environment where you would thrive, we would love to hear from you.
The Danish Crown Group is a global food processing company and among the largest in its field. The Group is the world’s largest pork exporter and Europe’s largest pork processor. Furthermore, Danish Crown Beef is a significant player in the European beef market.
Just like the crops in the fields continuously change, Danish Crown tirelessly refine and improve how we work, from farm to fork, to ensure good, safe food for people around the world to enjoy. Our history goes back to 1887 and the Danish cooperative movement, and responsibility towards society, our employees and our owners, the farmers, is quite simply in our genes.
As a global leader in meat production, we have big obligations; not just to deliver, but to explore new opportunities. We still have a long way to go and face many challenges. But we remain committed to improving how food is produced - with respect for animals, people and the environment. In this quest, we are prepared to challenge ourselves, the industry and the market.
This journey is not ours alone, but we promise to be the leaders of change.
You will become a part of a strong culture with roots in the Danish co-operative movement, and at all levels of the organization, you will be met by an informal and direct tone.
