Technical Quality Specialist
Peterborough
QA / Technical Specialist Peterborough Circa £30k pa The Role Our client is on the hunt for someone who doesn’t just do quality, but lives and breathes it. They’re looking for a QA / Technical Specialist who can keep the paperwork watertight, the audits in check, and the production team on their toes (in the friendliest way possible).   This isn’t a box-ticking exercise — it’s about food safety, consistency, and making sure customers get exactly what they’re promised. If you’ve got an eye for detail and the confidence to call things out when they’re not quite right, this could be your next move. What You’ll Be Doing Owning and improving the company’s Quality System. Leading the HACCP team and championing food safety culture across the site. Taking the lead on industry audits Working with customers to nail down specifications before anything leaves the site. Running the complaints system — and aiming for fewer complaints year on year. Managing, supporting, and developing the QA team — from daily tasks to training and appraisals. Sitting in on Health & Safety meetings to make sure quality isn’t left out of the conversation. Partnering with Production to keep compliance rock-solid. Hunting down opportunities for continuous improvement (because “that’s how we’ve always done it” won’t cut it). Keeping legislation knowledge fresh and relevant. Delivering internal training that sticks — making sure quality is everyone’s business.  What You’ll Need A degree in Food Science or something closely related. Solid experience running audits and quality systems in a food manufacturing environment. Strong organisational skills and attention to detail (the small stuff really matters here). The confidence to drive change when it’s needed. Clear, approachable communication — whether with colleagues on the floor or customers at the other end of the phone. A proactive, can-do mindset and the resilience to keep pushing improvements through.  What You Might Not Like This isn’t a “same every day” role — complaints, audits, and challenges can land when you least expect them. You’ll need to flip between the big picture and the finer details without missing a beat. Change can be uncomfortable, and not everyone loves it as much as you do.  What To Do Next  If you’re ready to take the lead on quality, raise the bar, and still keep a sense of humour along the way, we’d love to tell you more. Apply today with your CV and we’ll be in touch.

Business Development Executive
Cambridgeshire
Business Development Executive The Role We’re not about hard selling or quick wins. This role is about building genuine relationships with clients, understanding what they need, and showing them how our Clients' products can make their lives easier. You’ll be part of a friendly, driven sales team where consistency, curiosity, and good communication matter more than jargon or pushiness. If you enjoy making connections, picking up the phone, and seeing conversations turn into long-term partnerships, you’ll fit right in here. What You’ll Be Doing Following up on incoming enquiries by phone, email, or video call and giving potential customers a first-class experience. Picking up the phone daily to target new customers, building trust and turning cold calls into warm conversations. Listening to what senior stakeholders need, then recommending the right products and solutions. Managing a healthy pipeline in the CRM — keeping notes up to date so nothing slips through the cracks. Preparing accurate quotes and negotiating to close deals. Spotting opportunities to upsell and cross-sell without being pushy. Representing our client at exhibitions and events, chatting confidently to senior staff and showcasing products. Working closely with managers and colleagues to share ideas, improve processes, and hit team goals together. What You’ll Need Proven experience in sales, lead generation, or business development. Comfortable making outbound calls (and resilient when you hear “no”). Great communication skills — whether that’s a phone call, a quick email, or presenting at an event. The ability to plan your time, manage priorities, and keep on top of multiple opportunities at once. Confidence with Microsoft Word, Excel, and CRM systems. A can-do attitude: positive, self-motivated, and able to adapt when things change quickly. A focus on accuracy and detail — right first time matters to us and to our customers. What You Might Not Like This isn’t a “sit back and wait” kind of sales role. Cold calling is part of the job, every single day. They work to monthly targets — if numbers make you nervous, this probably won’t be your happy place. You’ll be juggling lots of enquiries at once, so if you prefer a slow and steady pace, this might feel overwhelming. What To Do Next If you’re ready to join a supportive team where sales are built on trust, not tricks, we’d love to hear from you. Apply today with your CV and let’s start the conversation.

Assistant to Director
Huntingdon
40000.00
Associate Financial Advisor Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire Competitive Salary Monday to Friday 9am-5pm The Role This isn’t your typical support role. As Associate Financial Adviser, you’ll work directly with the Director, supporting and servicing a portfolio of valued clients — with the long-term goal of stepping into their shoes and taking that portfolio forward. You’ll begin by shadowing and assisting: preparing research, coordinating advice, and supporting client relationships. Over time, as your knowledge and confidence grow, you’ll take on more responsibility until you’re the one leading those relationships. For someone ambitious, analytical, and client-focused, it’s a rare opportunity: mentorship at the highest level with a clear succession pathway. What You’ll Be Doing Partnering to deliver tailored financial planning solutions. Researching, analysing and preparing advice that genuinely helps clients. Staying ahead of product, technical and regulatory changes. Ensuring compliance and CPD requirements are met (properly, not grudgingly). Building long-term client trust with a view to managing the portfolio yourself. What You’ll Need Level 4 Diploma in Financial Planning (or equivalent). A working knowledge of FCA rules and compliance. Communication skills that work just as well with spreadsheets as they do with people. Organisational skills sharp enough to keep pace with a busy Director. A commercial mindset balanced with genuine care for clients. What You Might Not Like This is not a background role — client contact will become central. Compliance and CPD are part of daily life. The pace is brisk, and progression means being stretched. If you’re looking for “maintenance mode,” this isn’t it. This is a site-based role – if you’re looking for hybrid or remote, this isn’t it. What’s on Offer Competitive salary Pension contributions up to 5% Benefits package that’s actually generous 35-hour week with early Friday finishes (yes, that means 4pm) 24 days holiday including 3 days at Christmas and your birthday off, plus bank holidays Regular team-building activities (the good kind, not the awkward kind) What To Do Next If you’re ready to grow into a trusted Financial Adviser role — with the mentoring, exposure, and succession pathway to get you there — then click APPLY now!

Sheet Metal Worker / Plater / Fabricator
Peterborough
Sheet Metal Worker / Plater / Fabricator Peterborough, Cambridgeshire £Competitive Rates of Pay The Role Some people see a flat sheet of metal. You see potential. You know how to bend it, weld it, shape it — and turn it into bedway covers, telescopic covers, and machine guards that actually do their job. If you like making things solid, precise, and built to last, we should probably talk. What You’ll Be Doing Turning sheet metal into guards and covers that keep machines (and people) safe. Reading drawings that would make most people squint — and actually understanding them. Cutting, bending, rolling, and welding steel like it’s second nature. Switching between stainless, mild, and aluminium without blinking. Checking your own work, because “close enough” doesn’t cut it here. Keeping health & safety as sharp as your welds. What You’ll Need Real, hands-on experience with bedway covers and machine guards (this isn’t something you can blag). Strong fabrication skills — cutting, forming, welding, assembling. An eye for detail that borders on obsessive. Ability to work from technical drawings without needing a translator. A bit of independence — you’ll be trusted to just get on with it. What You Might Not Like It’s hands-on, noisy, and at times a bit gritty — definitely not a “shoes stay clean” kind of job. Every project’s different, which means thinking on your feet. If your natural style is “that’ll do,” you’ll hate it here. What To Do Next If you’ve got the skills and the attitude, don’t overthink it — just hit apply. Or drop us your CV and let’s have a conversation. Worst case? You’ll know for sure. Best case? You’ll be fabricating kit that actually matters.

You’ll be hands-on from day one: supporting fabricators, helping keep jobs moving, and picking up skills that will set you up for a career in the trade. The only must-have? A bit of mechanical knowledge — whether from a job, a course, or even a hobby like tinkering with cars, bikes, or machinery. If you can handle tools and enjoy practical work, the rest can be taught. What You’ll Be Doing Assisting engineers and technicians with daily workshop tasks. Preparing and moving materials for jobs. Operating basic workshop tools and equipment (training provided). Helping with assembly, fitting, and maintenance where your mechanical know-how comes in handy. Keeping the workshop safe, clean, and organised. Pitching in with whatever’s needed to get the job done. What You’ll Need Some mechanical knowledge (from work, training, or hobbies). A strong work ethic and eagerness to learn. Reliability and good time-keeping. A safety-first mindset. Comfortable with physical work and handling heavy kit. What You Might Not Like It’s a workshop — it can be noisy, busy, and physical. You’ll get dirty. If you prefer staying spotless, this isn’t for you. The learning curve is steep. You’ll be expected to muck in from day one. What’s on Offer Competitive entry-level pay. Full training A clear pathway to more skilled roles. A supportive, tight-knit team. Stable hours and long-term career prospects.
