Technical Manager

Technical Manager Food & Drinks Manufacturing South West UK £40,000 - £50,000 This is a clear brief for an iconic South West business with strong ambitions to grow and build on an already impressive platform. With a long-standing presence in food and drink manufacturing, the business is now looking to elevate its standards. They are seeking a Technical/Quality professional to build robust systems and drive consistency on a site where technical processes have been implemented in parts over time, but lack cohesion. The role will focus on three key priorities: Leading the transition from SALSA to BRC over the next 12 months. Bringing together existing technical processes to create a structured and effective Quality Management System. Developing and upskilling a small quality team. While these are the core objectives, the business ultimately needs a driven, well-rounded Technical/Quality professional who is dynamic and capable of growing with an exciting brand. This is a genuine opportunity to make a lasting impact and shape how the operation runs for years to come.
