About You

We're looking for someone who takes pride in their work, has a great eye for detail and understands the importance of maintaining high standards.

You'll bring:

• A methodical, organised and hands-on approach, with strong attention to detail.
• The ability to follow procedures accurately and work efficiently in a fast-paced environment.
• Good communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively across different teams.
• A proactive attitude, with strong problem-solving skills and a commitment to continuous improvement.
• Reliability, flexibility and a strong sense of responsibility.
• A positive approach to teamwork, health and safety, and maintaining high standards.
  
  

Education: Completion of secondary school education is required.

It would be great (but not essential) if you have:

• Experience in medicinal cannabis, pharmaceutical or regulated production environments.
• Knowledge of EU-GMP, GACP standards or cannabis cultivation processes.
• Experience working in cleanrooms or controlled production environments.
• Familiarity with compliance tracking systems and Microsoft Office.
  
  

The working environment

This is a hands-on, on-site role within an indoor production and distribution facility. You'll need to be comfortable standing, walking, bending and kneeling for extended periods, as well as occasionally lifting and moving materials weighing up to 50 lbs (approximately 23 kg).

The role involves working in controlled production environments, handling cleaning chemicals and solvents, and potential exposure to dust, pollen and plant allergens. You may also work around operational machinery and noise, and areas where CO2 is used.

Appropriate PPE will be provided and must be worn as required. A strong commitment to health and safety, GMP and security procedures is essential, alongside the flexibility to adapt to a changing working environment.

We're more interested in your attitude, attention to detail and willingness to learn than having every box ticked!
