Westbury Dairy, BA13 4WD

Arla Foods are looking to recruit a proactive and thorough Production Operative to join our team at our Westbury Dairy. Our Westbury site is the largest butter and powder facility in the UK as well as being the home of Anchor butter! You will be working in a fully-automated facility where your safety is the number one priority. Arla has a culture of rewarding talent by promoting internally.

Responsibilities

  • Reporting to the Production Team Leader, you will be operating high-speed processing and packing equipment.
  • You will be responsible for safety, quality, and efficiency on your production line.
  • You will receive full training to carry out the tasks.

This role will be working our Continental Shift pattern. You will work 12 hours shifts, rotating between days and nights including some weekends (2 weekends per month).

We are looking for someone who is able to work on your own initiative, have strong team working skills, and a flexible attitude to work. We need people who can demonstrate good levels of numeracy and literacy and have a sound technical understanding.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
