Technical Administrator
Location: Malton
Working Hours: Monday to Friday 08:00-17:00
Salary: £27,000
Pro-Pak Foods is a major supplier of delicious ready meals to many of the UK’s leading supermarkets and convenience stores. Our chefs work with our customers and have created a menu of more than 200 quality meals.
Are you highly organised, detail-focused and looking to build a career in food manufacturing or quality assurance?
We're looking for a Technical Administrator to join our Technical team in Malton. This is an excellent opportunity for someone with strong administrative skills who enjoys working with data, documentation and processes. Previous experience in a food manufacturing technical department is helpful but not essential—we're looking for someone with the right attitude, a willingness to learn and a genuine interest in developing their career.
Working alongside an experienced team, you'll receive support and training to develop your knowledge of food safety, quality systems and technical administration.
What you'll be doing
As part of our Technical team, you'll help ensure our systems, records and documentation are accurate, up to date and audit-ready. Your responsibilities will include:
- Maintaining and updating the site's Food Safety & Quality Manual.
- Supporting the creation and maintenance of technical documentation, specifications and procedures.
- Assisting with internal and external audits by gathering and retrieving information.
- Completing traceability exercises and supplier trace requests.
- Supporting mass balance exercises and departmental reporting.
- Monitoring key performance indicators (KPIs) and producing reports for site and senior management.
- Investigating and responding to customer complaints, working alongside the QA Manager to identify corrective actions.
- Supporting product specification management across internal and customer systems.
- Maintaining supplier approval records and technical databases.
- Completing customer and site questionnaires (SAQs and QAS).
- Keeping technical schedules and compliance records up to date.
- Assisting with export documentation when required.
- Supporting technical improvement projects across the business.
- Inputting data into Sage X3 when required.
- Providing administrative support across the Technical team during periods of absence.
- Promoting a safe working environment and following all health, safety and environmental procedures.
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
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

- Good IT skills, particularly Microsoft Office.
- The ability to manage multiple tasks and prioritise effectively.

Experience working in an administrative, manufacturing, food production or quality environment would be an advantage but is not essential. Knowledge of food safety, quality systems, specifications or Sage X3 would be beneficial, but full training will be provided for the right person.
