What is a BRC?

BRC typically stands for 'British Retail Consortium,' which is an organization that sets global standards for food safety, packaging, consumer products, and storage and distribution. In the context of job titles, a 'BRC' often refers to roles related to ensuring compliance with these standards, such as BRC auditor or BRC coordinator. These professionals are responsible for implementing and maintaining safety and quality management systems in line with BRC requirements, conducting internal audits, and preparing for external certification audits. Their work ensures that businesses meet legal, regulatory, and customer requirements for product safety and quality.
