Food Production Operative

Chris Mason is a Recruitment Manager overseeing the Warehouse and Food & Beverage divisions at Prime Appointments. He’s been with the company since 2010 and is part of the management team while still handling 360 recruitment duties.

Chris works with a range of clients across Essex, filling short-term, long-term, temp-to-perm, and permanent roles. He handles everything from advertising job openings and interviewing candidates to placing them in roles and supporting both candidates and clients through the recruitment process.

On the management side, Chris leads a team of three, ensuring daily operations run smoothly. He also works closely with the Senior Leadership Team to review and improve processes, as well as ensuring compliance is maintained, including GLAA for Food Manufacturing.

Chris is proud of his achievements at Prime, from his personal growth and the lasting relationships he’s built with clients (some of whom he’s worked with for 15 years!) to the successful launch and growth of the Industrial Permanent side of his division.

When asked about the most random fact he knows, Chris says: "It’s illegal to be in possession of a cow while drunk in Scotland!"
