Following the combination with Bakkavor in January 2026, we're one of the UK's leading creators of convenience food, driven by a simple purpose: to make every day taste better.
As a vibrant and fast-moving business, we’re proud to employ over 28,000 talented colleagues across 36 manufacturing sites and 21 distribution depots in the UK and the US. Together, we bring delicious food to life. Our products cover every meal occasion from breakfast through to dinner and dessert, with lunch and snacking in between. In FY25, our shared passion helped us achieve combined revenues of approximately £4bn.
Our extensive direct to store (DTS) network, with 17 depots across the UK, allows us to deliver fresh and frozen food both our own and from trusted partners to thousands of stores every day, ensuring consumers enjoy the very best, whenever and wherever they shop.
Our Finance Programme is designed to support and ensure high standards structured around the CIMA qualification; it offers three distinct placements in Management Accounting, Financial Accounting, and Advanced Management Accounting. You'll also gain valuable experience in financial management, risk management, and process improvement.
We carefully select placements to provide you with comprehensive exposure to essential business areas, ensuring you gain a deep understanding of our operations. After completing the programme, you'll continue to expand your expertise, preparing for a senior role.
The programme consists of an 18-month initial placement, followed by two 12-month placements, which may be at any of our UK sites. Flexibility in location is crucial during this period.
Starting Salary: £31,000 + £1,000 welcome bonus once settled in the business. An additional uplift is also provided for employees based at a London site.

Once both stages have been completed and reviewed, successful candidates will progress to the final stage: an in-person assessment day, held at one of our sites or another designated venue.

At Greencore, we want to reassure you that every application is read by a person – not filtered by AI. Applications that rely too heavily on AI often sound less authentic, more generic, and don’t capture the individuality, enthusiasm, and drive we are looking for.
