Chilled Education has been talking with colleagues working in Health and Safety, New Product Development and Technical. Their experiences show the diverse range of opportunities.
Rose Pridmore and William Sanderson (top row below) work on Health and Safety at Cranswick Foods. Rose’s interest in Food Science, and passion for cooking, combined with her Health & Safety qualifications are proving an excellent combination as she embarks on her career.
Meanwhile the fast-paced food industry offers Wiliam the opportunity to apply his Health and Safety knowledge in an environment where he can continually learn and progress.
At Fresh-Pak Chilled Foods Head of New Product Development Lindsay Ferguson cites her school’s ‘fantastic technology department’ as setting her on her career path. Now she’s creating exciting foods and helping to feed the nation.
And Lindsay’s colleague David Green is Technical Director has an interesting, and perhaps familiar, perspective on career guidance back in his school days!
The full interviews can be explored on the CEd website.
