Bridgwater, Somerset, United Kingdom Unternehmensgruppe Theo Müller Full time £18,500 per year


Who we are

We're Müller UK & Ireland, a family-run dairy business and we're experts at what we do. Dairy is a key part of a healthy and balanced diet and we're super proud to help meet the nutritional needs of millions of people, every, single, day. To do this, our business has been split into two areas: Müller Milk & Ingredients (MMI) and Müller Yogurt & Desserts (MYD).

Join MMI and step into a culture that's fast-paced and full of opportunity. With great benefits, exciting challenges, a dream team of people, this is your chance to make a real impact.

Over here, we're processing enough milk to make 66 billion cups of tea every year. And we're so much more than just milk. This is the place to come for cream, butter, milk drinks and ingredients products (a lot, we know), all made from milk from over 1,000 supplying farmers in Britain.

Why Müller?

Milk flows through everything at Müller – from farm to factory to fridge. But the true impact comes from our people, in each and every corner of the business, working hard and as a team to put smiles on faces everywhere, making each day delicious for our shoppers.

As the UK's most popular dairy brand, we're always striving to make a real difference for our planet, our partners and our people, making sure we're helping to create a more sustainable dairy future. We're growing to keep up with the millions of people reaching for our branded and private label products on shelves everywhere. Join a culture full of pace that's bold and entrepreneurial, with opportunities that are yours for the taking – and even enjoy every benefit and bonus to sweeten the deal.

We are recruiting Engineering Apprentices

At Müller UK & Ireland we're proud to create some of the nation's favourite dairy products, from fresh milk, butter, and cream to our famous yogurts, desserts, drinks and kefir. Sourcing milk from over 1,000 farms up and down the UK, we serve millions of families every day with a range of branded and private label goods which are nutritious and delicious.
