We are working with a grower‑owned fresh produce business where quality, transparency and long‑term partnerships are at the core of everything they do. They are now looking for a Quality Coordinator to support the technical and quality function across imported fresh produce supplied into UK retailers.
THE ROLE – WHAT YOU'LL REALLY BE DOING
This is a varied, hands‑on role where you'll be right at the centre of product quality and compliance. You'll support the technical team in ensuring all imported produce meets food safety, legal and customer requirements – working closely with suppliers, packhouses and retailers to keep everything running smoothly. If you enjoy being detail‑focused, organised and close to the product – while still having exposure to suppliers and audits – this role will suit you perfectly.

- Support food safety and quality compliance for imported fresh produce
- Maintain accurate documentation for retailer and legal requirements
- Assist with supplier approval, due diligence and compliance records
- Help ensure full traceability across suppliers and third‑party packhouses
- Communicate updates to specifications, legislation and customer requirements
- Support internal and supplier audits, including follow‑ups
- Assist with packaging approvals and customer requirements
- Carry out quality checks and support site inspections where required
- Liaise with suppliers, service providers and internal teams to resolve quality issues
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- A Quality Coordinator, QA or junior Technical professional within food or fresh produce
- Familiar with UK retailer standards (or keen to develop in this area)
- Organised, detail‑driven and confident managing documentation
- Comfortable communicating with suppliers and internal teams
- Familiar with systems such as Sedex (or willing to learn)
- Happy with occasional travel in the UK and overseas
The role offers a mix of office‑based work, remote working and supplier visits.
