I joined Premier Foods in 2016 on the finance graduate scheme so experienced various roles within finance including Commercial, Procurement and Group Finance. I eventually settled in the Brand Finance team and have been here ever since.

I have now worked my way up to a Brand Finance Controller and business partner for the Sweet Treats Marketing team on all things financial, from forecasting to new product development.

Premier Foods has been great in giving me new opportunities and roles to grow into as I develop throughout my career. I feel that what I do in my role matters for decision making and I especially like seeing a product on the shelves after I've been working on it. Finally, the people at Premier are great; they are a really supportive bunch!

Overall, my time here has been frantic peaks, delightful troughs, challenging me in ways I hadn’t expected. I look forward to more experiences with Premier Foods.

I'm responsible for the whole employee lifecycle, from issuing employment contracts to our new starters and giving them the best possible experience of joining a new business, to facilitating all the internal changes, as well as the offboarding process. I also deal with all HR admin queries from our colleagues, manage things like maternity and paternity leave, sicknesses, organisational structure changes, reporting and much more. I'm also a myHR super user and am always happy to help colleagues or line managers with any system issues.

Being part of how well we are doing as a business makes me feel very proud of our brands and I look forward to seeing how the business continues to grow.

I am responsible for delivering the community programme, which is an integral part of our Enriching Life Plan and includes both our volunteering programme and working with our charity partner FareShare, to support those facing food insecurity. I also bring external ESG insights into the business, developing colleague capabilities and understanding of ESG as well as raising the profile of Premier Foods' work in this space externally.

I joined Premier Foods in 2015 as Group Health & Safety Manager and was promoted to Group Health, Safety & Environmental Manager in 2021. My role can involve procedure and policy developments, training, auditing, and liaison with external bodies. Food manufacturing is so diverse that you never know what the next day holds and that is what I enjoy about working for Premier Foods.

Safety is always a key priority on all sites and the safety culture continues to improve. This could not happen without the strong support from the teams on all sites. This is what has helped us achieve one of the best UK safety records in the food manufacturing industry.

I'm responsible for acting as the bridge between IT and the commercial functions regarding technology development, solution discovery, project management and relationship management. Day to day I act as the primary IT point of contact to business leadership and managers in these areas. I also manage the delivery of IT projects and any enhancement or change to Premier Foods IT systems in these areas.

From my first day I was given a lot of responsibility for someone so early in their career. Having these opportunities and being allowed to run with them has given me invaluable experience and exposure across the business. I believe Premier Foods is a great place to develop your career. I have particularly felt that being on the graduate scheme helped drive my progression and opportunities within the Company.

I started working at Premier Foods as an operator in 2006 and I am now the Factory General Manager at our Lifton site after several promotions. I believe Premier Foods’ desire to recognise and develop talent from within the business played a big part in this.

I am responsible for leading a dedicated and passionate team of people, producing Ambrosia, Bird’s and Angel Delight. I ensure we are compliant in safety, quality, environment and ethical issues and work with teams on improvements and training plans.

Premier Foods is a company with a set of values it genuinely believes in and works hard to cascade. I believe it is a good company with an exciting future and is small enough for the level of personal contribution to be recognised and appreciated.
