About This Role
This is a hands-on factory-floor quality role at one of Ethiopia's established dairy processors, based at the Bishoftu production site rather than a head office. The work sits at the intersection of laboratory testing, production support, and regulatory compliance — you are the checkpoint between raw milk arriving at the gate and finished products leaving the facility. It suits someone early in their quality career who wants deep operational exposure in dairy manufacturing, where quality failures are immediate and visible.
What the Requirements Say About This Role
The employer is looking for someone who can work independently on the shop floor, not just follow a checklist in a lab. The emphasis on EFDA standards and ISO systems signals that this is a compliance-driven environment where documentation discipline matters as much as technical testing skill. The mention of customer complaint investigations and product development suggests they want a quality officer who thinks beyond pass/fail — someone who can trace problems back to their source and contribute to improving products, not just police them.
How to Approach This Application
Lead with any hands-on experience you have with dairy or food microbiology, raw material inspection, or HACCP-based systems — even internship or university lab work counts if it involved actual testing protocols. Be specific about your familiarity with Ethiopian food safety regulations and ISO documentation practices, since these are clearly central to daily work. If you have worked in a production environment before, mention how you handled the pace and pressure of real-time quality decisions rather than only controlled lab conditions.
Who This Role Suits
Best suited for a food science or dairy technology graduate with one to two years in a manufacturing quality role, ideally in beverages or food processing. Competition is likely moderate — the Bishoftu location narrows the applicant pool, but Holland Dairy's reputation in the sector means candidates from Addis and surrounding areas will still apply.
