We are passionate about potatoes. But we’re even more passionate about our People

For over 60 years we’ve been the number one branded player in frozen potato market. When it comes to bringing the nation together at mealtimes with simple, delicious and great tasting food we’re kind of a big deal

You won’t just find us in supermarkets though. As well as owning a household retail brand, our respected foodservice business works in close partnership with distributors, chefs and caterers across thousands of the country’s pubs, restaurants, hospitals and schools.

We are manufacturing maestros.
And we’re passionate about potatoes.
But we are even more passionate about our people.

ABOUT THE ROLE:
Did you know one in four chips eaten in the UK is made by us?

But at McCain, it’s not just about what we make, but it’s about how we make it that’s important.

We are looking for Technical Operatives (also known as ‘Tech Ops’) to join our #WeAreMcCain family.

It would be your role to ensure our products are packed to company standard which includes:

- Operating various production machinery
- Completing quality checks
- Supporting Team Members
- Chemical cleaning and sanitation

All whilst maintaining high quality, hygiene, maximum production, and a high level of safety - our number one priority here at McCain.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

You might have never worked in a food manufacturing environment before, and that’s OK We’re quick learners here at McCain, so we can teach you everything you need to know.

However, we are looking for someone who can really make a difference to our plant, who brings experience of working in a team, the ability to work closely with their manager, and who has a real ability to bring people along a change journey with them.

WHAT’S IN IT FOR ME?

Although we do encourage you to taste the goods, you’ll be pleased to know we don’t pay you in chips. For working hard, you’ll also get a great salary and some pretty good benefits including:

- An excellent pension where we will pay double what you do, up to a maximum of 12% of your pay
- Optional health cash plan
- Cycle to work scheme
- ‘Chips In’ Volunteering Day Off - to make a positive impact to the long-term development of McCain communities across the globe

And of course, being part of a Global business there are great opportunities to shine/thrive should you wish to relocate in the future. We have an impressive 5 year growth plan that presents development & progression opportunities for those who seek it out.

WHERE WILL I WORK?

You’ll be based at our Wombourne plant in Staffordshire. And together our small, but perfectly formed team of over 110 colleagues produce our famous (and well loved) potato Smiles as well as our pre-baked Jacket Spuds.
