Production Operatives
2 weeks ago
Cherry Tree UK Ltd currently has a temporary position available with a strong chance of becoming permanent at its production facility in Martock. Cherry Tree is an artisan producer of chutneys, jams and marmalades which it supplies to delicatessens and farm shops around the UK predominantly but also exports a small amounts. It also sells directly to the public through the internet, at Food Fairs, weekly Markets, Christmas Markets and summer shows. Cherry Tree employs 10 people and is managed by the two owners. The company is looking for an individual to help make their products in its small factory in Martock, Somerset. The company works a 4 x 10 hour Mon-Thurs week which leaves a 3 day weekend
**Job purpose**
To help prepare ingredients and produce award winning chutneys, jams, curds and marmalades from raw prepared ingredients using 200kg cooking vessels. It is physically tough but a rewarding job, there are currently only 4 people on the site so although there are different roles, getting the job done is a team effort. There will also be a warehouse element to the job. The company is expanding, so it is possible that this position could develop if the individual wanted to progress within the company.
**Duties and responsibilities**
- To prepare for the days production by ensuring all machinery etc is turned on and in good order
- To weigh out ingredients for the recipes, complete the appropriate paperwork and help cook the products.
- To take responsibility for making fantastic products out of high quality ingredients to meet the team’s high bar for quality
- To keep working areas clean and safe
- To intake ingredients into the warehouse and take charge of some warehouse duties. If not already qualified, fork lift license training will be given
- To help around the factory in whatever department needs that support
- To ask for help if needed
- To be flexible in attitude
**Qualifications**
A background in food manufacturing/food service/catering would be a benefit but mainly the company is looking for a flexible and amenable approach to working in a team. It is essential that the applicant is interested in good food and is keen to produce high quality products. Full training will be given so anyone can be considered, Cherry Tree is looking for the right person to fit in with the team rather than necessarily an experienced food producer.
**Working conditions**
- The factory works a Monday to Thursday 4 x 10 hour working week, currently 7am to 5.20pm although these times need to be flexible. There isn’t much space so ingredients are bought in a “just in time” basis and need to be used pretty much immediately. If there are manufacturing problems encountered, we still have to find a way to finish the day’s/week’s program to use up the fresh or frozen ingredients, hence the need for flexibility.
- Holiday - 20 days + 8 days bank holidays in the first full year then 25 days + 8 in the second year.
- Smoking - non smoker only. There will be no opportunity given to smoke during the working day
**Physical requirements**
- This is a physically demanding job, we have done everything we can to minimize lifting, particularly from low down but there is quite a bit of heavy lifting from waist height, 25kg bags of sugar being the heaviest.
- The current team have chosen to only have 20 minutes off during the working day, hence the 17.20 finish time. However, this is always up for discussion and an earlier start is possible, allowing for more breaks if that is important.
**Job Types**: Full-time, Temporary contract
Contract length: 3 months
**Salary**: From £9.50 per hour
**Benefits**:
- Free parking
- On-site parking
Schedule:
- 10 hour shift
- Day shift
