Our Story
In 2003, Simon Reynolds started The Yoghurt Shop with a simple idea: make yoghurt properly, using time-honoured methods, quality ingredients and genuine care.
Since then, The Yoghurt Shop has grown into one of Australia's most awarded handcrafted Greek yoghurt brands — now made in its own South Australian factory and stocked in homes, retailers and cafés nationwide.
Despite the growth, the approach hasn't changed: small batches, fresh SA milk, traditional slow methods, and thickness that comes from craft, not additives.
Yoghurt Made Differently,
From the Very Beginning
Your Opportunity
With plenty of opportunity still ahead, we are now looking for a Chief Operating Officer who can help take the business to the next level. This opportunity has arisen due to an internal promotion and will see the successful candidate join the executive leadership team at an exciting point in the company's journey.
Chief Operating Officer
We're looking for someone who genuinely enjoys building great businesses.
Reporting directly to the CEO and based at the Burton manufacturing facility, you'll lead operational performance across the business, overseeing Production, Quality, Logistics, Maintenance and Customer Service functions.
This isn't a role where you'll simply keep the wheels turning. The foundations are strong, but there's significant opportunity to improve systems, streamline processes, build capability and create an operational platform that can support continued growth.
- Join one of SA's most successful and fastest-growing food manufacturing businesses
- Lead a team of five across Production, Quality, Logistics, Maintenance and Customer Service
- Play a key role in shaping the next phase of growth
It began with Simon Reynolds’ simple idea, and a belief that the best things are worth making by hand. Today,
with his son Brandon by his side, that same commitment to craft and care shapes everything we do
— from the way we culture and hand-strain our yoghurt, to the way we share it with you.
The Craft Behind Our Yoghurt
There are no shortcuts, additives or unnecessary thickeners. Just carefully cultured yoghurt, strained by hand and made with the kind of attention to detail that has shaped The Yoghurt Shop from day one.
This is handcrafted Greek yoghurt made properly — with patience, skill and respect for the process.
Handmade in South Australia
Every day, our small team makes, strains and packs yoghurt in our South Australian factory.
Every batch is cultured, checked, strained and packed by people who know that the small details matter.
We don’t believe in rushing what matters. We believe in doing it properly, every time.
Still Made the Way It Should Be
With plenty of opportunity still ahead, we are now looking for a Chief Operating Officer who can help take the business to the next level. This opportunity has arisen due to an internal promotion and will see the successful candidate join the executive leadership team at an exciting point in the company's journey.
