What the role involves:
Ensuring compliance with health and safety, welfare, biosecurity and industry assurance standards.
Supporting cost control through effective management of labour, resources and operational expenditure.
Building strong working relationships with farm managers and site teams to drive accountability and performance.
Identifying opportunities to improve processes, increase efficiency and embed best practice across multiple sites.
Leading farm audits and maintaining readiness for Red Tractor, environmental and internal compliance requirements.
Monitoring operational performance, identifying risks and implementing corrective actions where required.
Supporting employee performance, development and workforce planning activities.
Contributing to the continuous improvement of operational standards, productivity and commercial outcomes.
What We're Looking For:
You're from a poultry, livestock or wider meat supply chain background, with experience in compliance, efficiency, animal welfare and commercial performance.
Comfortable working across multiple sites and with competing priorities.
Proven team leadership experience is preferred, although aspiring leaders are encouraged to apply.
Ability to drive operational efficiencies in a complex business.
