You will also enjoy working as part of a cohesive and collaborative national team, communicating key audit & Food Safety requirements to site operational teams as well as developing, implementing and maintaining compliance and quality systems in accordance with company guidelines.

- Providing support to sites in closing out all corrective action requests within timelines set out by audits.

To be successful, you will ideally have:
- Extensive experience in a similar role, within a logistics/industrial environment.
