Summary Job Description
Members of the fish processing team work under the instruction of the production manager. The job requires a good level of physical fitness as the work is carried out standing up and in temperature controlled environments and the post may be unsuitable for people with a condition that would prevent any normal activities like lifting or other manual tasks. The smokehouse is a modern food production facility and all the products produced in the factory are made under strict conditions of hygiene and cleanliness.
- Tasks carried out by members of the production team include:
- Handling of fish including filleting and trimming salmon
- Working with knives and other cutting equipment
- Supervised operation of various machines that skin, slice, trim and vacuum pack smoked fish
- Working for short periods in cold stores and warehouses
- Cleaning and housekeeping of the processing areas and other parts of the factory
- Delegated responsibility for some environmental monitoring like temperature checks of chill rooms and cold stores
Training and previous experience
All training will be given so no previous experience working with fish is required but would be an advantage. The training is staged with new skills introduced as the team member progresses. It is a requirement that all staff achieve a minimum of Elementary Food Hygiene certification early on in employment, which is paid for by the company.
Minimum requirements
Candidates must at least have basic English language and reading skills, basic mathematical skills and be over the age of 18. Experience in food production or food processing is an advantage. We would encourage applications from candidates that have a driving licence as reliance on public transport may limit available hours offered.
Pay
Starting pay is in line with national minimum wage and increases incrementally with skills acquired. There is potential for additional remuneration with increased responsibility in this growing company.
References
Applicants should be able to supply appropriate references or character references.
Accommodation
Accommodation is not presently provided by the employer but assistance in searching is offered.
