Job Advert

Who are we ?

We are FBC, Fox's Burton's Companies! ……-And we bake the UK's most incredible biscuits (we might be slightly biased, but we will
leave that for you to judge).

FBC was a match made in heaven, with two of the top UK biscuits manufacturers (Burton's Biscuits and Fox's Biscuits) coming
together to create one unique, integrated company.




We are home to famous iconic brands, including Maryland, Fox's, Jammie Dodger & Rocky, to name just a few. We bake our incredible
biscuits at eight bakeries across the UK, located at Isle of Arran, Livingston, Blackpool, Llantarnam, Edinburgh, Kirkham, Batley
& Dorset. We also have offices for our supporting services in St Albans, Liverpool and Moreton. Together, we employ circa 4,000
amazing employees across all our locations.




We are currently the second biscuit manufacturer in the UK market with a strong ambition of becoming the number two biscuit
manufacturer worldwide.




We are proud to be part of the Ferrero enlarged family: such a fantastic and successful business. The Ferrero Group operates in
more than 50 countries, with products sold in over 170 countries, represented by almost 38.000 employees worldwide, and a
consolidated turnover of €12.7 billion (2020-21).




Along with our fantastic brand portfolio, we also have long-term agreements to manufacture several sweet & savoury snacks across
Mars, Jacobs, and LU branded products. In addition, we are proud to be a strategic partner for many retailer-branded products.

Our employees make our business special. With strong family values, we believe FBC is a more prosperous and fun place to work with
when people feel free to be themselves. We believe in the power of being authentic, entrepreneurial and supporting each whilst
meeting our business goals.




And don't forget… work hard but play harder!
