Butcher

Fosse Meadows Farm is a small business in North Kilworth LE17 6JD. We are customer-centric, professional and creative.

Our work environment includes:

- On-the-job training
- Growth opportunities
or Part-time hours available - Core hours Monday to Thursday from 7am - 5pm (Weekends on a rota basis) 25hrs - 45hrs per week.
- Seasonal hours mid November to December 24th hours are increased

We farm from day-old to 12 weeks, producing 2,000 birds a week to sell at Farmer’s Markets, wholesalers and directly to retail customers online. We butcher in-house and create our own high-margin products from pies, sausage rolls, pate, jerky and broths. We also produce seasonal poultry, lamb, and hogget.

Butchers required for a farm based meat cutting plant which takes provenance and quality very seriously. The role is varied and involves one day working in our EC licenced poultry abattoir processing our chickens alongside cutting requirements.

A minimum of 3 years butchery experience is essential, with a strong emphasis on poultry and experience of red meat cutting. Experience of bacon, gammon curing and sausage production would be an advantage.

We produce and sell cooked products such as pork pies, pate, stock and broth, so an interest in learning this side of production would be beneficial.

Packaging products for retails and wholesale.
