  There’s nothing beige about McCain…
  Except for our potatoes — and we’re extremely passionate about them.
  When you join McCain, you’ll be joining the biggest player in the frozen potato game, bringing people together around the nation for over 60 years by sharing simple, delicious planet-friendly food. We’ve partnered with thousands of the country’s supermarkets, pubs, restaurants, hospitals, and schools to change the way people see the humble spud. It’s all about elevation and creating something better.
  So, come and make your career at McCain Foods.

  ABOUT THE ROLE:
  Did you know one in four chips eaten in the UK is made by us? But at McCain, it’s not just about what we make, but it’s about how we make it that’s important.
  
  We are looking for General Operatives to join our #WeAreMcCain family.
  
  It would be your role to ensure you play your part in upholding both Health and Safety and Food Safety company policies. Be able to work as part of a team or solo.
  
  High quality, hygiene, maximum production, and a high level of safety – is our number one priority here at McCain.
  
  WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR…
  You might have never worked in a food manufacturing environment before, and that’s OK! We’re quick learners here at McCain, so we can teach you everything you need to know.
  
  However, we are looking for someone who can really make a difference to our plant, who brings experience of working in a team, the ability to work closely with their manager, and who has a real ability to bring people along a change journey with them.
  
  You must also have…
  • A keen eye for continuous improvement and who will strive to find areas to enhance our line operations within our plant.
  • The ability to work at pace, without jeopardising quality and standards.
  • A team player who can play towards creating our winning culture.
  • A passion for quality with an eye for detail.
  
  
  WHAT’S IN IT FOR ME?
  Although we do encourage you to taste the goods, you’ll be pleased to know we don’t pay you in chips. For working hard, you’ll also get a great salary and some pretty good benefits including:
  • An excellent pension where we will pay double what you do, up to a maximum of 12% of your pay
  • Optional health cash plan
  • Cycle to work scheme
  • ‘Chips In’ Volunteering Day Off - to make a positive impact to the long-term development of McCain communities across the globe
  
  And of course, being part of a Global business there are great opportunities to shine/thrive should you wish to relocate in the future. We have an impressive 5 year growth plan that presents development & progression opportunities for those who seek it out.
  
  WHERE WILL I WORK?
  You’ll be based at our Wombourne plant in Staffordshire. And together our small, but perfectly formed team of over 110 colleagues produce our famous (and well loved) potato Smiles as well as our pre-baked Jacket Spuds.

  McCain Foods is an equal opportunity employer. We see value in ensuring we have a diverse, antiracist, inclusive, merit-based, and equitable workplace. As a global family-owned company we are proud to reflect the diverse communities around the world in which we live and work. We recognize that diversity drives our creativity, resilience, and success and makes our business stronger.
  
  McCain is an accessible employer. If you require an accommodation throughout the recruitment process (including alternate formats of materials or accessible meeting rooms), please let us know and we will work with you to meet your needs.
