Food Service Auditor, Manchester (Independent Contractor)

Long Hanborough · Remote ok

About this role

Are you working long hours, evenings, and weekends in hospitality, and ready for a change?

At NSF, we’re offering a unique opportunity to transition your hospitality experience into a rewarding auditor role with structured hours and great benefits.

This vacancy is specifically for Manchester and Stockport. Go and check out our other open roles here.

What NSF can offer you:

  • Flexible Working: While travel to and from audits means it’s not strictly 9 - 5, you’ll enjoy a more predictable schedule than typical hospitality roles.
  • Localised Work, Less Travel: We keep your area local so you’re not spending hours on the road. That means more time at home and less time commuting.
  • Minimal Overnight Stays: Overnight stays are rare and only ever required if you choose to take them on.
  • Make a Visible Impact: You’ll visit restaurants, bars, and grocery stores, many you may already know as a customer, and help them meet high standards in food safety and compliance.
     

How Independent Contracting Works:

  • You operate on a self‑employed basis, completing assessments on behalf of NSF.
  • You are paid per audit, with travel expenses covered, where applicable.
  • You share your availability, and visits are scheduled based on your location, experience, and scheme coverage.
  • Work is offered on an ad hoc basis and can vary throughout the year depending on programme needs.
  • It offers autonomy, flexibility, and the chance to shape your own workload.
