Description

We are working with a well-established food manufacturing business to recruit a site-based Environmental Coordinator for a permanent position at one of their flagship UK operations.

This role has been created following the departure of the previous post-holder and presents an excellent opportunity for a candidate looking to step into a role with genuine ownership and visibility.
