Food Jobs in Scotland

If you're looking for food jobs in Scotland then Focus Management is the recruitment choice for you. We've got vacancies with some of the UK's leading food businesses serviced by our offices in the Scottish Borders.

Good jobs are rare to find these days, we all know that, and good food jobs in Scotland are like the proverbial hens teeth...but so are good candidates!

Scotland is often recognised as 'the land of food and drink'. This statement sits in line with the growth and expansion plans of the food and drink industry in the north of the UK. The industry is hoping to reach a value of over £12 billion by 2017, whilst becoming more profitable and better able to compete in the global market.

Scotland's food manufacturers are a credit to the country with many supplying own label products to the top five major grocery retailers.  And there is no customer more demanding than a retailer!

With the economic situation still hanging in the balance, it is more important than ever for food companies In Scotland to continue to invest in R&D and New Product Development, the lifeblood of next month's, or next year's, revenue.

But creativity shouldn't be restricted to the laboratory or test kitchen.  All departments should be showing a flair for driving innovation and efficiency - be it through the creation of a new food product or a new production process, optimising equipment or challenging their ingredients supplier to source the next new taste sensation.

Individuals who can combine creative flair with commercial realism - especially in difficult trading conditions - and can communicate effectively with their teams, are a treasure worth seeking...whether they are Product Developers, Manufacturing Managers, Engineering Supervisors, Quality Managers or Planners.

To maintain, or better still, grow the scope of food manufacturing facilities in Scotland, we need to keep investing in the people who will double the return on investment.

  • There are around 50,000 food jobs in Scotland - almost 12% of the UK food and drink workforce.
