## Description

**Kepak is a global food company serving international retailers and food service household names with prime cuts of meat, on-trend food concepts and ready-for-market convenience foods.** 

**Kepak St. Merryn in Bodmin** is a beef processing facility. We offer beef products ranging from retail ready cuts for butchers’ counters to branded packaged meat, all as part of our service; raised on open pastures, sourced from local farmers and hand-selected by our master butchers, we produce beef products with integrity and unmatched quality assurance. 

We are currently looking for an experienced Recruiter to work in our busy meat manufacturers in Bodmin.
