Why Greencore?
Following the combination with Bakkavor in January 2026, we’re one of the UK’s leading creators of convenience food, driven by a simple purpose: to make everyday taste better.
As a vibrant and fast-moving business, we’re proud to employ over 28,000 talented colleagues across 36 manufacturing sites and 21 distribution depots in the UK and the US. Together, we bring delicious food to life. Our products cover every meal occasion from breakfast through to dinner and dessert, with lunch and snacking in between. In FY25, our shared passion helped us achieve combined revenues of approximately £4bn.
Our extensive direct to store (DTS) network, with 17 depots across the UK, allows us to deliver fresh and frozen food both our own and from trusted partners to thousands of stores every day, ensuring consumers enjoy the very best, whenever and wherever they shop.
Why is this an exciting time to be the Deputy Finance Global Process Owner (P2P) at Greencore?
In this busy and exciting role you will play a key part in transforming our Procure-to-Pay (PTP) process as part of a major three-year ERP implementation. You will take ownership of specific elements of the PTP design, work closely with cross-functional teams, and help shape how we buy, manage suppliers and process payments in a newly digitised environment.
