Full-time | Starting Summer 2027
Apprenticeship as a Dairy Technologist
We combine state-of-the-art technology with traditional craftsmanship to produce incredibly delicious, award-winning raw milk cheese. Raw milk cheese means that, unlike usual, the milk has not been heated before processing. This preserves the full aroma, and each wheel develops its own unique character.
Fortunately, we still have a spot open for you: We are looking for an apprentice (m/f/d) to become a dairy technologist for the next apprenticeship year 2027!
You will learn from us:
- the planning, control, and monitoring of production processes in traditional dairy processing
- the cheesemaking craft according to the motto "hands in the milk" – here you will learn how to make first-class raw milk cheese
- supporting your colleagues with daily tasks, e.g., turning cheese, placing cheese in and removing it from the brine bath, piercing cheese, and packaging with the wrapping machine
- cleaning tasks and weekend work according to the shift schedule
- adherence to applicable quality, safety, and hygiene standards
You bring:
- Love for cheese and a desire for traditional work. Good cheese needs emotions; we put our heart into it!
- Team spirit as well as willingness to learn and perform
- Technical understanding
- Enjoyment of physical work
We offer:
- Meaningful work on a farm that actively supports the region, nature, and animal welfare.
- A nice and motivated team: Mutual support and fun are part of every day!
- Snacks for your breakfast in the staff room
- Health days and health prevention
- Possibility of accommodation (depending on availability)
- Wellpass - a great way to participate in many sports and wellness offers location-independently and cost-effectively
Sounds great, doesn't it?
We look forward to your application to bewerbung@backensholz.de or via WhatsApp to 0172/7480073.
