QA Inspector Opportunity in Paddock Wood

We have an opportunity for you to join our team in Paddock Wood as a QA Inspector in Paddock Wood. The Fresh Produce Centre is an established and growth-hungry business, supplying the best quality avocados, Kiwi, and Stone fruit to retail, wholesale, and foodservice customers in the UK and overseas.

About the Role

As a Quality Assurance Inspector, you will assess and report on the quality of our products by carrying out visual, sensory, and technical tests during different stages of the process. You will be responsible for ensuring that quality is absolute premium from the moment the raw product arrives, whilst it is in production, and until the point of dispatch.

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.
