Butcher

• Job Category Butchery, Production
• Employee Type Full-Time
• Manage Others No

We are growing our butchery team - whether you're an experienced butcher or looking to build your skills in a production environment, we'd love to hear from you.

This is a hands on role in a fast paced environment where your work will directly contribute to delivering high quality products to our customers.

What you'll be doing

• Preparing, cutting and portioning meat to required specifications
• Breaking down primal and sub primal cuts safely and efficiently
• Ensuring consistent quality, presentation and portion control
• Minimising waste and maximising yield through effective techniques
• Maintaining high standards of food safety, hygiene and cleanliness
• Supporting stock control and the smooth running of daily operations

You will need to be able to work 5 days across 7, so there will be some weekend working involved, and you'll need to be able to reliably commute to our site in Dartford (DA2 6QB).

Requirements What we're looking for

We're open to applications at all levels of experience.

• If you have butchery experience, you'll bring your skills and knowledge to the team
• If you have less experience, we'll provide training and support to help you develop and grow

We're particularly interested to hear from you if you:

• Enjoy practical, hands on work
• Take pride in doing a job well
• Can work efficiently in a fast paced environment
• Are reliable, flexible and team focused

A food hygiene certificate is beneficial, but not essential, we can provide training in this.

At Albion, we value our people and recognise the importance of teamwork, development and pride in what we do. You'll be part of a supportive team where your contribution truly matters, and where you'll have the opportunity to develop your skills over time.

Job preview Salary: Up to £39,000 depending on level of experience

Work life balance is important to us and we want you to spend time with family, friends and doing things you enjoy not just work. This is why we give you 30 days annual leave plus an additional 22 days off across the year worked into your schedule, still earning a full time salary. Additionally, you will also have access to:

• A subsidised restaurant serving breakfast and lunch all at a reduced cost
• Our discounted staff purchase scheme on over 4,000 products
• Enhanced family friendly policies
• Cycle to work and EV Salary Sacrifice Scheme
• Internal Mental Health First Aiders
• Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) including external mental health support and retail discounts
