Trainee Production Operative Leicester, England

Packing goods ready for shipment in boxes or onto pallets.
Good observation of health and safety. Both yourself and of others.
Offers sound foundational skills in plant and machinery.
Sustainable practices wherever possible.
The Successful Production Operative – what do we want?
The successful candidate should be eager to learn, be able to use their initiative and want to work alongside a close-knit team. There are periods of working alone also. Training and professional development is encouraged.

The role involves some physical work and correct cleaning of equipment is vital.
Benefits – what’s in it for you?
