Make a Difference - From supporting ethical practices to improving sustainability standards, your work helps shape a better food system.

What You'll Be Doing:

Assessing and making decisions on product quality, seasonality, and compliance
Managing and maintaining accurate supplier records to ensure full due diligence
Engaging with suppliers to drive improvements in ethical, quality, and sustainability standards
Providing clear and concise internal reporting for both customers and stakeholders
Taking part in internal audits and customer-facing meetings
Leading relationships with key suppliers and tracking their KPIs
Managing customer specifications and updating relevant internal databases
