Applying, step by step

Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
Keep copies of these ready to send: ID copy, certified within the last three months plus food handler or HACCP certificate if you have one.
Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 7 working days, usually by phone.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Kempton Park.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Tips to get shortlisted

Do not wear jewellery or long nails to the interview if it is on site. Food factories notice and it counts.
Name the products you worked on before, like "biscuit line" or "juice bottling". Factory recruiters read that faster than a job title.
