So, what will I be doing?

Would you like to be a key member of our logistics team? Based at our Isleport site we are looking for a new Logistics Maintenance Hygiene Operative.

As a Logistics Maintenance Hygiene Operative, you’ll be a key player in maintaining the cleanliness, safety, and hygiene of our logistics areas. You’ll help ensure our facilities are spotless, well‑maintained, and meet the highest standards – assisting the movement of our award‑winning products from our farms to families across the UK.

At Yeo Valley, everything we do is rooted in nature. From our organic farming practices to our commitment to biodiversity and renewable energy, we work hard to nurture the planet we call home. By joining us, you’ll become part of that mission—helping to keep our logistics environment running in a way that reflects our values.

We also believe in nurturing people. That means offering real opportunities to grow within the business. Whether you’re just getting started or looking to build a long‑term career, we’ll support you with training, development, and the chance to move into new roles as you grow with us.

This role is based working Monday‑Friday.

• Previous experience in hygiene or facilities maintenance (ideally in a food production or logistics environment)
• Good understanding of health & safety and hygiene regulations
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team
• Flexibility to work various shifts if required

Why should I join the family?

We’re independent, British and proud to be making the highest quality yogurts, desserts and ice cream under the Yeo Valley brand and for many of the UK’s major retailers.
