The role

SGS is the world leader in inspection, verification, testing, and certification and is considered the benchmark for quality and integrity. With an international network of more than 2,500 offices and laboratories and approximately 100,000 employees in over 115 countries, SGS helps organizations manage risks, improve processes, and meet the highest standards of quality, safety, and sustainability.

Within the SGS Group, SGS Business Assurance focuses on the certification and auditing of management systems. As an Auditor, you will work with internationally recognized standards such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 27001, and ISO 13485 and support organizations in structurally improving their performance. You will not only assess, but also provide valuable insights that allow customers to move forward.

What distinguishes SGS is the combination of independence, expertise, and impact. As an auditor, you will gain a unique behind-the-scenes look at diverse organizations and make a direct contribution to quality, safety, and trust in the market. At the same time, you will work within a dynamic, international organization that is constantly in motion and where innovation is central.

Working at SGS means choosing impact, freedom, and development. You will work independently, visit various customers, and receive a high level of responsibility in your role. At the same time, you will be part of a strong international network of professionals with in-depth knowledge.

SGS actively invests in your growth through training, career advancement opportunities, and a culture in which initiative and improvement are encouraged. In an organization that never stands still, you will contribute to sustainable quality as well as your own career.

What you'll do

Do you have an eye for detail and a heart for food safety? Do you want to build relationships and do you dare to be critical at the same time? Do you have experience in a quality-related role within the food sector and do you want to work as an auditor? Or do you already have experience as an auditor? Then we are looking for you!  

SGS Business Assurance is involved in performing audits and certifications for various standards regarding quality, (food) safety, and the environment. Think of the most well-known ISO standards such as ISO 9001 (quality standard), ISO 14001 (environmental standard), VCA, ISO27001, and food safety standards such as BRCGS, IFS, and ISO/FSSC22000.

As a food auditor, you will work from home and be deployed nationally, making it a very independent and free role. Together with your 14 Food Auditor colleagues, you will perform audits at various companies related to the food industry (transport, logistics, storage, trade, catering, etc.) and in various branches within the food industry (meat, fish, poultry, vegetables, fruit, dry raw materials, dairy, ready-to-eat meals, beverages, bakeries, confectionery, snacks and cereals, oils and fats).

  • Assessing whether an organization's quality system complies with current standards; the most requested food standards with us are: BRCGS, IFS, and FSSC22000;
  • Performing audits, including preliminary investigations and any follow-up visits;
  • Providing oral explanations regarding the findings immediately after performing the audit;
  • Writing reports of the performed audits;
  • Staying up to date with developments regarding food standards;
  • Exchanging knowledge and practical experience with your Food Auditor colleagues.
