Warburtons are coming to Biggleswade! Are you ready for your next roll?

You’ll initially be working out of our Enfield depot (at no cost to you as you'll be shuttled to the site during your training, in working time) while our brand-new build, state‑of‑the‑art permanent site in Biggleswade is being completed —but once it's ready, that’s where you’ll rise and shine.

So, if you’re a Warehouse Team Member or Operative, looking for a role with a bit more substance (and crust!), this could be your moment to prove you’re made of the right stuff.

• Able to work
• Experience in a similar role within FMCG (Fast Moving Consumer Goods)
• Ability to work in a safe manner and consider the safety of others
• Previous experience in a hygiene role would be advantageous
• A good attention to detail witha firm focus on Quality and Health & Safety
• Able to adapt well to change and undertake a variety of activities across our operation
• Demonstrating teamwork and communicating effectively developing relationships with team members and other teams across the site

As the UK’s No. 1 Bakery Brand, we have been baking bread since 1876. Today, we are proudly a sixth‑generation family business, supplying over 18,000 retail customers from 11 bakeries and 16 depots, producing a range of over 70 products including gluten and wheat‑free.

We are striving to be a net zero business by 2050 and believe that we must minimise our impact on the environment, whilst making a positive impact on the society we are a part of.

Family and values are what makes us different, and we are a proud bunch, join us and you too could be proud to be Warburtons.

The Recipe

Our experienced Team Member role offers the opportunity to work as part of a multi-skilled team, taking an active role in maintaining high standards of health & safety, hygiene, and operational processes across our warehouse environment. Team Members are a vital part of our work family, ensuring products are stored and handled correctly so they’re ready for distribution to our customers.

This role is an integral part of a shift team within a 24/7 operation, supporting Warburtons in delivering unbeatable quality products to our customers.

Our Team Members are multi-skilled and work across various areas within hygiene and warehouse operations – at times autonomously – ensuring compliance with statutory hygiene standards and company procedures.

Health and Safety and Quality are central to everything we do. You’ll be actively involved in making decisions that help us maintain these standards every day.

You’ll also provide basic support and guidance within the team, leading by example in your work activities.
