The NCFM has outstanding sector-focused facilities, including a state-of-the-art food factory demonstrating cutting edge food automation.

All of NCFM’s students are employed in the food industry and study on a part-time basis at the campus, the majority are adults. 

The NCFM partners with a wide range of suppliers of equipment and technologies to the sector and the post holder will foster good working relationships with our industrial partners.
