North Yorkshire sausage factory creates jobs as demand grows

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 21 Oct, 18:32 · Archive

Heck, a North Yorkshire food producer making one million sausages daily, is recruiting for new production roles.

Heck, a family-run food firm based in Kirklington near Bedale, is creating new jobs as demand grows for its sausages, burgers, meatballs and rashers. The company produces around one million sausages every day.

The business will hold its fifth recruitment event on Saturday, October 24, offering jobseekers the chance to tour the factory, meet staff and interview for available roles. Vacancies include Mixing Room Supervisors, Picking Team Members, Packing Team Members and Day and Night Hygiene Team Members. The open day runs from 10am to noon at Heck's headquarters on Lime Lane, Kirklington.

The recruitment drive responds to skills shortages and competition for workers across North Yorkshire's manufacturing sector. Heck has been opening its factory doors to prospective employees, allowing people to see the production process and experience the business before applying. Previous events have resulted in successful hires, including Andy Sheehan, who joined the team this year. He said the open day was 'a great way to get a feel for the business before joining' and praised the family atmosphere and dynamic working environment.
