Hi, I recently started The Pemmican Project with the goal to create clean, healthy, fully animal based foods for everyone. The tasks are primarily packaging, labelling, production and shipping of product. A major part of the job involves handling food so a level 2 Food Hygiene certificate is required and ideally experience with working with food products. Additional tasks will involve everything from adding stickers and labels to product, packaging, running errands, laundry, housekeeping etc. Most of the work will take place from my apartment in Moorgate but will soon move to a full time facility in Bethnal Green. The job pays 15£ per hour. I’m very flexible on working hours and taking breaks. I’ll show you exactly how to do every part of the job and will expect you to do it the exact same way and to the same standard. The perfect candidate is timely (shows up on time), is a bit obsessive about doing things properly and always leaves the place looking nice. I look forward to hear from you! Rasmus
