About BodyMe
BodyMe is an organic plant-based nutrition brand making clean, high-quality protein bars and powders. We produce our products in-house, which means quality, care and attention to detail are at the heart of everything we do.
We are a small, growing team with ambitious plans, and we are looking for a reliable, hands-on person to join our production team.
About the Role
This is a practical, hands-on role in a clean food production environment. You will help make, pack and dispatch our organic protein products, while keeping the workspace clean, organised and running smoothly.
The role would suit someone who is reliable, physically capable, detail-focused and happy working as part of a small team.
What You’ll Be Doing
Your day-to-day tasks will include:
- Preparing and producing our organic protein bars and powders
- Weighing ingredients accurately and following recipes and procedures
- Using production equipment safely and carefully
- Checking products for quality and consistency
- Labelling, packing and preparing products for dispatch
- Picking and packing website and Amazon orders
- Cleaning equipment, tools and work areas to a high hygiene standard
- Helping keep the production area organised, safe and efficient
- Working with the team to meet daily and weekly production targets
What We’re Looking For
We are looking for someone who is:
- Reliable, punctual and consistent
- Practical, hands-on and hard-working
- Careful and accurate with good attention to detail
- Comfortable working in a clean, structured food production environment
- Able to follow instructions, recipes and hygiene procedures
- Physically capable and able to lift up to 25kg when needed
- Happy doing a mix of production, packing, cleaning and dispatch tasks
- Positive, proactive and willing to learn
Experience in food production, catering, warehouse, packing or a similar hands-on role would be helpful, but it is not essential. A Level 2 Food Hygiene qualification would be an advantage, but training can be provided.
What You’ll Get
