Join a Supportive, Family‑Run Food Manufacturing Team

Albert Bartlett has been proudly supplying the UK with high‑quality potatoes since 1948. As a family‑run business with sites in Airdrie, Boston, Westwick and Jersey, we champion traditional farming values while embracing modern production techniques.

We’re looking for a Machine Operator / Machine Setter to join our friendly, fast‑paced production team on a Monday–Friday dayshift. This is an excellent opportunity for someone mechanically minded who thrives in a collaborative environment and wants to contribute to a long‑standing British food brand.

If you enjoy hands‑on work, problem‑solving and helping to keep production running smoothly, this could be the perfect next step in your career.

What You’ll Be Doing

Machine Setup & Calibration

  • Set up and calibrate production machinery in line with product specifications
  • Complete safe and efficient machine changeovers

Routine Maintenance & Troubleshooting

  • Carry out regular machine checks to maintain performance
  • Respond quickly to minor mechanical issues to reduce downtime

Quality Monitoring

  • Monitor production output to ensure all products meet quality standards
  • Make real‑time adjustments to maintain consistency

Accurate Record‑Keeping

  • Record machine settings, changes and production data clearly
  • Support quality assurance through accurate documentation

Team Collaboration

  • Work closely with fellow operators, setters and team leaders
  • Support a positive, smooth‑running production environment

Training & Safety

  • Assist with training new operators on machine operation and safety procedures
  • Follow all company health, safety and hygiene standards

What We’re Looking For

You’ll excel in this role if you have:

  • Experience as a Machine Setter, Machine Operator, Production Operative, or similar manufacturing role
  • Strong mechanical awareness and a hands‑on approach
  • Good attention to detail and problem‑solving ability
  • Ability to work effectively within a team
  • Reliability and a positive attitude

Experience in food production is helpful but full training will be provided.

What You’ll Receive

  • £13.17 per hour (rising to £14.23 after training)
  • Monday–Friday dayshift (excellent work–life balance)
  • Supportive team and strong family‑run culture
  • Training and development opportunities
  • Free on‑site parking and staff facilities
  • Long‑term career potential in food manufacturing

🚀 Ready to Join the Team?

If you’re mechanically minded, enthusiastic and looking for a friendly workplace with stable hours, we’d love to hear from you. Bring your skills to Albert Bartlett and help us continue delivering quality products across the UK.

Requirements

  • Previous experience in machine setting or a similar role within a manufacturing environment preferred.
  • Strong understanding of machinery operation, particularly in food production.
  • Excellent troubleshooting skills and the ability to maintain machinery effectively.
  • A keen eye for detail to ensure product quality and safety standards.
  • Collaborative spirit and great communication skills to work effectively with the team.
  • Willingness to embrace a dynamic work environment and adapt as needed.
