Why do people like to work at Bells of Lazonby? What is the company culture like?
Our Culture:
We guide our business by three core values in which we encourage all our employees to live by.
Family:
To maintain our ethos of supporting each other as one team and nurturing talent to produce baked goods that we would be proud to serve to our own families.
Innovation:
To spot the latest trends in our industry before they happen and encourage open creativity within all of our team.
Quality:
We pride ourselves on working with the best suppliers for our ingredients and have achieved the highest BRC accreditation grade of AA. We are RSPO Accredited, Vegan Society approved, and Coeliac society approved.
Our People:
Bells has always known that our most important asset is not the machinery, products or even the beautiful location, but that it is our people that make our business what it is.
Learning and Development:
We are committed to recruiting local talent and seeing them flourish through both on-the-job and classroom training. Many of the management team today began as young apprentices and this is the legacy, we want to continue for many more generations to come.
Apprenticeship schemes:
We offer Level 2 and Level 3 Baking Apprentices to our young people working on the Bakery lines to help them to progress their skills, personal development and importantly to climb the career ladder.
We also have Engineering Apprentices including a L3 Diploma in Engineering, who work alongside our experienced team in-house engineers.
