Quality Controller

At Pasta Evangelists, we believe that Pasta makes everything better. We are looking for a passionate Quality Controller to join our Quality & Safety team. 
You will be the guardian of our food quality and safety, ensuring every dish that leaves our Central Production Unit (CPU) meets the highest standards. In this hands-on role, you will bridge day-to-day operations and technical compliance—from leading sensory tasting panels and ingredient inspections to managing our nutritional databases, allergen tracking, and supplier performance. If you thrive on keeping standards exceptionally high and want to play a key role in protecting and enhancing our brand reputation, this is the job for you.  

What you'll do at Pasta Evangelists:

• Delivering the required food safety and food quality standards befitting of our brand
• Conduct daily and weekly tasting panels and results recorded.
• Carrying out weekly internal audits.
• Identifying and investigating the root cause for any non-conformances and complaints.
• Ensuring daily compliance with the quality management system.
• The ownership & accurate communication of the technical specification of products manufactured at CPU.
• Developing, managing and communicating the Pasta Evangelists nutritional database.
• Developing, managing and communicating the allergy database.
• Monitor, police and enhance supplier quality performance. 
• Supporting the Pasta Evangelists training department and advising on sound health and safety and food safety practices at CPU.
• The quality control of all ingredients into CPU.
• Managing the relationship with 3rd party laboratories and service providers.

• Pasta Evangelists was born nine years ago out of a desire to become the authority in fresh pasta. We’re on a mission to reimagine and elevate pasta as a category, which is worth a staggering £3.8bn yet has seen little innovation for decades.
  
  Since launching our original fresh pasta recipe kit service in 2016, we have built a cult following of British pasta lovers – our Evangelists – who are passionate about discovering the breadth and variety of pasta, as well as the irresistible stories behind it.
  
  Today, Pasta Evangelists is backed by Barilla (the world’s biggest pasta company) and is proud to be the UK’s biggest pasta brand by revenues, as well as one of the UK’s fastest-growing startups. As well as on our website, our recipe kits are available to purchase from major online retailers such as Ocado.
  
  Building on this success, we are now disrupting Britain’s pizza-centric Italian dining scene by launching our very own Pasta Evangelists restaurants, as well as our high-end Harrods Pasta Bar and our store at Manchester Airport. These are not just Italian eateries — they are vibrant destinations where guests can experience the extraordinary diversity of pasta, alongside exceptional service, bold creativity, and a true passion for great food. Guests can enjoy a delicious meal and take part in our popular pasta-making classes at our restaurants in Chiswick, Richmond, Greenwich, Farringdon, Guildford, New Oxford Street and Queensway.
  
  At the same time, we continue to expand our fresh pasta takeaway concept, available on pastaevangelists.com and through major delivery platforms such as Deliveroo, Uber Eats and Just Eat. With more than 40 kitchens now operating across the UK, including in Scotland and Wales, we are growing our footprint rapidly and bringing fresh pasta to more customers every day.
  
  Our state-of-the-art Pastificio in Acton, West London — the largest in the UK — enables us to produce a wide range of artisanal pasta and sauces, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in this beloved category.
  
  Looking ahead, our key focus is on opening more restaurants and creating unique spaces that celebrate pasta in all its shapes, offering something far beyond the traditional Italian experience.
  
  Given our ambitions, we are looking for exceptional professionals to lead our business through this next exciting chapter of growth.
