At Creed Foodservice, we’re continually creating a great place to work, with great people. Passion, core values and a great customer experience are at the heart of our business.

Established in 1972, we are an ambitious family business within the foodservice industry. We deliver a great range of multi-temperature food products, including our butchery and fresh ranges, to caterers across the country from our bases in Gloucestershire, Derbyshire, and Buckinghamshire.

Not only were we awarded a Best Companies ‘2-star’ accreditation in 2020, but we were also announced as one of The Sunday Times Best Companies To Work For, which we’re extremely proud of.

Our people are committed to living our company values, ensuring they’re commercial, friendly, nurturing and proud. We work hard and we are committed to providing a great service, but we ensure we have fun and continue to develop our people along the way. We’re constantly striving to find better ways to approach challenges and our team are always proactive and learn from their mistakes.

Foodservice is an exciting, fast-paced and challenging industry to work in and we’re proud to support, encourage and reward our people and teams at all levels across all departments to progress with ongoing development, training and recognition. Recent internal training initiatives include the ‘Creed Exceed’ Development Programme, LEAD, Sales Training, and Drivers Academy.

With a broad range of business functions dedicated to delivering quality products, high service levels and added value to internal and external customers, we are able to offer clear progression internally for those who are keen to pursue a career, learn new skills and bring their knowledge to other areas of the business.

We signed up to the Armed Forces Covenant in 2015, to show our support for the UK’s armed forces community. Signing the corporate covenant marked our recognition of the value that serving regular and reservist personnel, veterans and military families contribute to businesses and the UK. The company aims to offer employment, where possible, to ex-servicemen and women and support any reservists. Over the years (including prior to the signing the covenant) we have been and continue to be proud to provide employment to ex-servicemen and women.

In addition to signing the covenant, we also:
- Encourage partner organisations and suppliers to join the corporate covenant scheme
- Publish our covenant in our depots, and throughout our literature, to promote the fact that we are an armed forces-friendly organisation
- Aim to actively promote the Armed Forces Day and Reserves Day via social media channels
- Take into account the military commitments of any spouse or member of the armed forces, when reviewing requests for flexible hours to suit their needs
- Support any employee who chooses to be a member of the Reserve forces, by accommodating their training requirements by re-arranging working hours and providing extended periods of leave when required.

We are an equal opportunities employer and welcome applications from all suitably qualified persons regardless of their race, sex, disability, religion/belief, sexual orientation or age, as outlined in our equal opportunities policy.

We are required, by law, to publish our gender pay gap report, which can be found here.

We recognise and understand our responsibilities for ethical working practices. The company is absolutely committed to those ethical practices, preventing slavery and human trafficking in our activities, and ensuring that our supply chains are free from slavery and human trafficking.
