Experience within fresh produce or the food industry would be desirable but is not essential.

• Opening in 2023 after the success of our Peterborough site, Alconbury Weald is already at the heart of the UK’s fresh produce supply chain. Every day, we sort, process, pack and deliver fresh, healthy produce to the UK’s leading supermarkets, so there’s a good chance the citrus, grapes and melons you buy have passed through our site.
