We have several exciting opportunities for enthusiastic individuals with production or machine operator experience to join and collaborate with the Mars Petcare team at our factory in Melton Mowbray.

The role of a Process Operator is to support the operating, controlling, and monitoring of machinery; to yield efficiency, produce high quality and safe petfood, and maintain a professional, clean manufacturing environment.

• Production Operator or similar experience in a factory environment.
• Committed and able to learn those elements you have not done yet or have less experience in.
• Experience facilitating CCP (‘critical control point’) or quality checks or running risk assessments.
• Collaborator with good interpersonal skills.

What would be your key responsibilities?

• Responsible for CCP and quality checks to ensure we are producing first class products.
• Work together with the team to run the equipment to maintain a constant flow of product to the next area.
• Keep and share records, logs, and effective shift handovers.
• Commit to identifying and proposing ideas and solutions that will increase efficiency in production, cost, or time.
• Contribute and support the team performance by working collaboratively, sharing knowledge and best practices.

What can you expect from Mars?

• Work with over 130,000 diverse and talented Associates, all guided by The Five Principles.
• Join a purpose driven company, where we’re striving to build the world we want tomorrow, today.
• Best-in-class learning and development support from day one, including access to our inhouse Mars University.
