The new recruits will work across production, across a variety of permanent and fixed-term opportunities in roles covering cheese-making, packing, grating, waxing and blending. Previous experience is not essential as full training will be provided and day/night-based roles are both available.

Managing Director George Heler said: "We pride ourselves as an employer in putting our people at the centre of everything we do. We are committed to recruiting the best local talent and developing our teams to support the growth of our business.

"As we prepare for our annual peak, we are recruiting to keep up with demand and support our continued development."

The expansion has been announced following record growth and in recognition of the hard work provided by the operational teams during this period, contracted employees were recently rewarded with a one-off bonus equivalent to one week's pay.

Heler added: "We recognise the part our team has played in keeping the food industry going throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Together we have been resilient, regardless of the challenges we faced.

"If you're interested in joining a company that is both traditional and innovative, and you like the sound of what we do, we'd love to hear from you."
