St Albans, United Kingdom Lotus Bakeries Full time

Verenigd Koninkrijk

St Albans

We are BEAR. We’re an ambitious young company determined to take a big bite out of bad snacking habits. Grrr. We make pure fruit snacks with no added nonsense that make being healthy a little bit easier and a whole lot tastier. Real Fruit, Real Flavour, Real Fun We started out making our tasty pure fruit yoyos, and now also make a whole host of other tasty pure fruit products too that go into several snacking categories: ‘paws’ for babies and toddlers, crunchy ‘Alphabites’ cereal with no refined sugar or salt. Ice lollies made from only two ingredients and a big ambition to take this brand beyond the above. We also make Urban Fruit, gently baked fruit to eat on the go, for the 25-45 year olds who run around leading busy lives but who find eating a juicy mango on the bus home a bit of a challenge. Since we launched 14 years ago, we’ve grown quickly and we are currently sold in all the UK’s supermarkets and grrreat stores across the UK. Now we are taking BEAR around the world and have really ambitious plans for our international growth across Europe, the Middle East and beyond. We are a growing team of 38 people, and moved to our new offices in St Albans in 2021.
What makes us different? We keep things simple - this means only using real ingredients and absolutely no sulphites, concentrates, preservatives, added sugar or added salt. We work directly with all our farmers, meaning we can guarantee the quality and production standards of our snacks are the very highest. We pick ripe fruit when it’s perfectly in season, and bake it at low temperatures to make sure you hang on to the good bits. Brand is at the heart of everything we do, and we have a lot of fun along the way. Our values Team spirit: Constructively cooperates to achieve a common goal while respecting each other and in mutual trust and consultation. Open dialogue: Listens actively, communicates proactively and gives constructive feedback. Passion: Gives the best of oneself, projects energy and commitment, is eager to learn and proud to be working for Lotus.
