**The Successful Applicant**

A bit about you:

- Loves dogs (naturally)
- Experience in reviewing raw material and/or finished product specifications
- A strong communicator, able to communicate effectively at all levels, with a conscientious and diligent attitude
- The ability to be flexible, multi-task and work well under pressure
- Able to undertake manual handling and taste testing
- Able to work in a chilled environment
- Good literacy and numeracy skills
- IT literate
- Organised and able to prioritise
- Inquisitive and keen to learn about new commodity groups
- Hungry for a challenge and keen to build something from the ground up

**About Us**:
At Butternut, the mission is to deliver health and happiness to dogs and their humans all over the world. In order to do just that, they need a team of forward-thinking, driven people who love dogs as much as they do. And they need quite a big kitchen too. Which is precisely why they have built one.

Located in Doncaster, Rudie's Kitchen will be the place where all the magic happens, so to speak. It's where the tasty Butternut meals and treats will be gently cooked, using human-quality ingredients because, the way they see it, they wouldn't serve food to dogs that they wouldn't be happy to eat themselves. At Butternut, they believe dogs deserve better, and if that's something you think too, we want to hear from you.

Butternut has come a long way since Kev & Dave (co-founders) hand-delivered the first Butternut Box, and they are now looking for brilliant people to join the team for this next part of the story.

**What's on Offer**

A bit about what Butternut Box offer:

- We are offering an attractive salary for the role of up to £30,000 per year
- Monday to Friday office hours working (with flexibility needed occasionally)
- 257.5 hours of holiday per year, plus an additional 8 hours per year of service (to a total of 5 years)
- 39 hours of pre-booked "Paws days" to support good wellbeing and self care.
- £500 personal learning & development budget
- Free on-site parking and electric car charging
- Butternut Box employee discount
- Cycle to work scheme
