Protecting Food Businesses Through Expert Quality Assurance & Compliance
Food safety is not just a regulatory requirement it is a promise to every customer who trusts your business with their health. I am Mohsin Ali, a dedicated Food Safety and Quality Assurance Consultant with over three years of hands-on experience working in high-risk food manufacturing and hospitality environments across the United Kingdom. I combine a strong academic foundation an MSc in Food Science from London Metropolitan University with practical, real-world expertise that delivers measurable results for the businesses I work with.
My career has been built on one core belief: that exceptional food safety systems do not just prevent problems, they create confidence. Confidence for your customers, your team, your auditors, and your business as a whole. When your quality systems are robust, your staff are well-trained, and your documentation is in order, you can focus on growing your business knowing that the foundations are solid.
A Career Defined by Results
My most significant professional achievement to date came in January 2026, when I supported a BRCGS (Brand Reputation Compliance Global Standards) audit at Around Noon one of the UK's leading food manufacturers that resulted in an AA grade. This is the highest tier of achievement in BRCGS certification, and it is not awarded easily. It requires months of meticulous preparation, rigorous internal auditing, comprehensive documentation, and a quality culture that runs through every level of the organisation. Supporting that outcome is something I am genuinely proud of, and it reflects the standard I bring to every project I undertake.
At Around Noon, I served as QA Manager, where my responsibilities spanned the full breadth of food quality assurance. I conducted bi-monthly GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) audits, led monthly traceability and mock recall exercises including full provenance trace-back to farm level and managed six active trackers on the Food Management System covering everything from gluten-free verification to product conformity and maintenance records. Every week, I coordinated microbiological swabbing and gluten-free positive release testing, and I investigated and resolved up to four customer complaints per week related to food safety and product quality. I also chaired weekly team meetings, compiled monthly KPI reports, and conducted regular glass, hard plastic, and fabrication audits to mitigate physical contamination risks.
