Position Overview & Specifications

About us:

Billington Foods supply the UK’s Foodservice, Retail & B2B markets. Our product expertise covers chilled and frozen sauces and soups, frozen pies & desserts; and we are predominantly a bespoke manufacturer. We are also the home of Glorious! Soups, available in supermarkets across the UK. Part of the Billington Group our factories are based in Scunthorpe and Wellingborough.

About the role:

As a Chef you will follow the recipe card with the ingredient provided from the Preparation. You will be trained on how to use cooking vessels and prepare food safely in line with the recipe card.
