Lucy began her journey with Cranswick in 2022 on the General Graduate Scheme, after completing a science based degree at university. However, Lucy was passionate about working in the food industry and therefore decided that undertaking a graduate scheme at Cranswick was the right decision for her early career.

Throughout her first year of the General Graduate Scheme, Lucy worked in a variety of departments across the business, including rotations in Operations, New Product Development and Commercial. After the first year Lucy was given the opportunity to join three Technical teams to widen her knowledge of the business and gain exposure to group and site based roles. She now works as a Technical Officer for our Group Technical Services team, ensuring that food safety and quality is of the highest priority across the business.

"My time on the general graduate scheme at Cranswick has been both equally phenomenal and challenging, but in the best way possible. I have accomplished significant personal and professional growth through diverse experiences, from hands-on projects that deepened my understanding of the food industry to collaborative initiatives that honed my leadership skills. Overall, the graduate scheme has not only equipped me with essential industry knowledge but also strengthened my ability to work cohesively in a team, setting a strong foundation for my future career with Cranswick. I am proud to be apart of the Cranswick family, paving the future for our generation to come."
