Are you an experienced Hygiene Manager, Team Leader or Supervisor ready for your next step?
At Warburtons, hygiene is about much more than keeping things clean. It plays a critical role in protecting our products, our people and the quality our customers expect from us every day.
We’re looking for a Hygiene Team Manager to join our Bristol Bakery, working Monday to Friday. You’ll lead and develop our Hygiene team, set high standards across the bakery and work alongside our Bakery Manager and wider site leadership team to continually improve the way we work.
The Recipe
You’ll take ownership of hygiene standards and performance across the bakery, creating an environment where your team understands not just what great looks like, but why it matters.
- Leading from the front, you’ll coach, motivate and develop your team to deliver consistently high standards of hygiene, food safety and compliance.
- You’ll work closely with colleagues across Operations, Engineering and Food Safety to identify opportunities, solve problems and make improvements that have a real impact on bakery performance.

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.
