People come first in this business; it’s all about team leadership, mentoring and stakeholder engagement in a high volume, automated factory technical role.

This is a business that looks after its people. Structured development plans without boundaries, even if you want to grow your skills in an entirely different sector of the business, all will be agreed from the outset.

This role will be ideal for a highly experienced Quality Manager ready to step up or a Technical Manager from a smaller business keen to be part of the SLT. It’s a highly automated site, where the factory will be your domain. And although you’ll be joining a major PLC, this site has a warm, family feel to it.

The most important part of the role is all about people leadership and stakeholder engagement. It reports into the Site Lead who has fostered a ‘results through people’ culture.

OPEX and quality assurance are the drivers here. Your focus is on leading by example through optimisation, waste reduction and continual improvement with rigorous technical and quality controls. Innovation through sustainable packaging development will also sit with you, where you’ll have the opportunity to positively impact the business’s environmental footprint.

You’ll have two direct reports: the Quality Manager who enjoys analysing data and is process-driven, along with a highly experienced Laboratory Manager who leads a team of eight Lab Technicians.

Qualified to degree level in a Food Science, with HACCP level 4, if you have food manufacturing experience at QM or TM level, working to BRC standards, you should apply.

The best leaders know that results are achieved through strong teamwork, so if people and uncompromising quality, technical and food safety standards share equal footing in your world, send your CV today to start the journey.

PLEASE NOTE: You must have the right to work in the UK without requiring sponsorship.

How Many Biotechnology Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Biotech Job?

If you are trying to break into biotechnology or progress your career, it can feel like the list of tools you are expected to know is endless. One job advert asks for PCR, another mentions cell culture, another lists bioinformatics pipelines, automation platforms or GMP systems. LinkedIn makes it worse, with people sharing long skills lists that make you wonder if you are already behind. Here is the reality most biotech employers will not say out loud: they are not hiring you because you know every tool. They are hiring you because you understand biological systems, can work accurately and safely, follow protocols, interpret results and contribute reliably to a team. Tools matter, but only when they support those outcomes. So how many biotechnology tools do you actually need to know to get a job? The answer depends on the role you are targeting, but for most job seekers it is far fewer than you think. This article breaks down what employers really expect, which tools are essential, which are role-specific, and how to focus your learning so you look employable rather than overwhelmed.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in Biotechnology Job Applications (UK Guide)

Hiring managers in biotechnology do not start by reading your CV word for word. They scan for credibility, relevance and risk.

Whether you are applying for roles in research, manufacturing, quality, regulatory, clinical, bioinformatics or commercial biotech, the strongest applications make the right signals obvious in the first 10–20 seconds. This in-depth guide explains exactly what hiring managers in UK biotechnology look for first, how they assess CVs, cover letters and portfolios, and why capable candidates are often rejected. Use it as a practical checklist before you apply.
