Careers

Looking for your next career move? There’s never been a more exciting time to join First Milk.

We’re a co-operative business that's growing fast through our ambitious investment plans, strong partnerships with our customers and commitment to sustainable dairy farming.

Owned by the family farms that supply us with milk and invest capital in the business, we produce award-winning cheddar, regional cheese and dairy ingredients, as well as marketing fresh raw milk to other UK food manufacturers.

By working together, co-operatively, we leave the world a better place. Think of it as dairy as force for good – regenerating the earth every day as we nourish future generations.

Careers

Our culture

We offer a competitive salary and benefits package, and are investing more than ever in training and development to create a culture that empowers our colleagues to achieve their best every single day.
