Your tasks

  • You are choosing a profession with a future in an extremely varied industry.
  • Meat specialists receive basic training with us. This involves basic skills such as boning, cutting and dressing pieces of meat, producing ready-to-cook and ready-to-pan food and complying with hygiene, occupational safety and sustainability regulations.
  • In this profession, you choose a focus that suits you best:
  • In "meat production", you will learn all about animal husbandry and professional slaughtering, cutting and boning.
  • In the focus on production with "poultry specialization", you will learn about meat production and the processing of poultry. You will process, package and declare the products for the end consumer. Ensuring sustainability and quality and hygiene specifications are also important learning objectives.
  • The focus of "commercial meat processing" is the production of meat and other raw materials into high-quality food products.
  • Your creativity is required in "meat processing". You can put this to the test, for example, with cured meats, cold platters and ready meals.
  • The production of ready-to-sell products and the dynamic manufacturing process in large industrial operations round off your apprenticeship.

What you bring with you

  • Completed primary school
  • Enjoy working with food and a careful approach to work
  • Physical fitness and manual dexterity
