We are a chocolate brand based in Sawston, near Cambridge, making healthier, high-quality chocolate under the Ombar brand. All our chocolate is made on-site in our chocolate factory and sold to health food shops, Ocado and Waitrose, as well as directly to individual customers.
As a Chocolate Production Assistant, you and your colleagues will share the tasks of refining ingredients, moulding, wrapping, packing and dispatching chocolate bars. Some aspects of this role can be quite physical, particularly ingredients handling. You will work on a section rotation, as assigned by the Team Leader, and take ownership of your tasks.
This role requires excellent attention to detail. You will start the production line, run tests with each batch of chocolate, conduct weight checks, adjust settings throughout the moulding process and temper the chocolate. You will visually inspect each bar, check the wrapping quality, and complete safety and date checks on multiple occasions throughout the day.
As we aim to train everyone in various activities to create a strong, competent team, you will also be given progression opportunities.
