- Self-Employed Independent Contractor - This is a contractor position only and is not a full-time, permanent, or employed role. Assessors will be engaged on an independent contractor basis and assigned work according to programme requirements, geographic coverage, qualifications, and availability.
About the Opportunity
We are seeking experienced self-employed Food Safety Auditors and Social Assessors to support the delivery of a global workplace assessment programme.
Unlike traditional social compliance or food safety audits, this programme places significant emphasis on the physical and psychological safety and wellbeing of workers. As an independent contractor, you will conduct assessments at site level, evaluating the extent to which workplace standards, policies, and management systems are effectively implemented.
Contractors will be engaged on an assignment-by-assignment basis and will be responsible for delivering assessments in accordance with programme requirements and protocols.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits

- Prepare accurate and timely assessment reports.
- Maintain impartiality, confidentiality, and professional conduct at all times.

- A recognised qualification in Food Safety.
