**Job Role**

Working as a Production Assistant in our Oat Pantry fulfilment department your role will vary daily between:
Packing Finished Products - As a packer you will be responsible for:

- Filling hoppers with freshly baked products and operating packaging machinery to package up the finished products.
- Hand packing the finished products into their retail ready packaging.

**Experience**:

- Previous experience in food packaging would be advantageous but is not essential as full training will be provided.

**Shifts**:
We see this role being worked over 3 shifts per week from 9am-4pm Mon-Weds. With a 30 min/shift unpaid lunch break. Opportunity for increased hours.
