This role offers genuine autonomy and the opportunity to play a key part in the future growth of Grandpa Greene's Luxury Ice Cream Limited.

If you're looking for a role where you can make a real impact and take ownership of an entire manufacturing operation, we'd love to hear from you. You will report only to the company directors.
