Are you passionate about quality? Do you dream of a world where every bite of houmous is a taste sensation? Then we want YOU to join our team as a Quality Assurance Technician at our new houmous factory!

Working Hours: Monday to Friday, 2:00AM – 10:30PM (1 role available)

About us:

We're not just a factory - we're a houmous haven, a sanctuary for taste buds everywhere! From classic chickpea to spicy jalapeno, we're on a mission to delight customers with our delicious dips. And we need a Quality Assurance Technician to ensure that every tub is a triumph!

Your role:

The online QA technician has a responsibility to ensure that quality, safety and legality of the product are achieved to the highest standard. This is achieved through various on-line checks. Non-conforming product is brought to the attention of the QA Supervisor so that a suitable course of corrective action can be implemented.

What you’ll do:

  • To carry out routine metal detection checks as per procedure and completing the relevant process control documentation.
  • To carry out routine gas analysis as per procedure, ensuring gas levels are within specification & flagging up any out of spec results to the line leader/QA Supervisor so a suitable course of action can be agreed.
  • To carry out daily calibration checks to a set frequency for the on line check weighers to ensure they are operating correctly.
  • To check the correct on line specifications are being used per line for the product being sliced.
  • To carry out quality attribute assessments on finished product to the defined attributes and a specified frequency.

What you’ll bring:

  • A passion for houmous that rivals even the most dedicated dip connoisseur.
  • Leadership skills that can inspire a team to greatness and keep morale as high as our flavour profiles.
  • Background in food production or quality assurance - but if you're a houmous enthusiast with a knack for quality, we want to hear from you.
  • A commitment to food safety and quality standards that's as solid as a scoop of houmous on a pitta bread.
