Here in the UK, we're about 2,400 strong, spread across seven factories and our Slough HQ. But don't let our size fool you – we're as close-knit as they come. We believe in speaking our minds, celebrating our differences, and pushing boundaries together.

Diversity isn't just a buzzword for us.  We're on a mission to create a workplace where everyone belongs. So, even if you don't tick every box, we want to hear from you! Your unique perspective could be just what we need. Also, if there's anything we can do to make this process easier for you, just give us a shout.

Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills that enable you to work effectively with both technical and non-technical colleagues, supporting the team’s success.

Experience supporting end-to-end business processes, with transferable expertise from FMCG or other fast-paced, complex environments.

Confidence in reviewing and correcting SQL scripts, alongside experience in collaborative, multi-cultural, and geographically diverse team environments — but we’d still love to hear from you if you don’t meet every requirement.
