Technical & Quality Manager
Lincolnshire / Cambridgeshire
We are working with a grower-owned fresh produce business where quality, transparency, and long-term partnerships are at the core of everything they do. They are now looking for a Quality Coordinator to support the technical and quality function across imported fresh produce supplied into UK retailers.
The Role – What You’ll Really Be Doing
This is a varied, hands-on role where you’ll be right at the centre of product quality and compliance.
You’ll support the technical team in ensuring all imported produce meets food safety, legal, and customer requirements — working closely with suppliers, packhouses, and retailers to keep everything running smoothly.
If you enjoy being detail-focused, organised, and close to the product — while still having exposure to suppliers and audits — this role will suit you perfectly.
