Bristol, United Kingdom Zest Full time

We are recruiting a NPD Food Technologist for an award-winning food manufacturing business based in Bristol, widely recognised as one of the city's most celebrated and successful companies. This is an office-based role supporting New Product Development (NPD) and the ongoing management of existing products, playing a key part in delivering high-quality, innovative products to market.

The role will involve writing and maintaining internal and external product specifications, transferring specification data into customer portals, completing information requests and maintaining accurate databases. You will support innovation by contributing new product ideas aligned to customer briefs and market trends, sourcing ingredients and packaging from new and existing suppliers and identifying opportunities to improve existing recipes.

You will coordinate shelf-life and nutritional testing, run nutritional's, manage the critical path and support smooth product launches by working closely with all departments. The role also includes setting up recipes, labelling and work instructions for production and packing teams, as well as supporting audits, customer visits and ad-hoc projects.

To be successful in this role, you will need previous experience within food manufacturing, ideally in NPD, Process or Technical, along with a strong understanding of food processes and the ability to work to tight deadlines. Due to the site location and occasional travel requirements, a full UK driving licence and access to a car are essential.

Please note: Sponsorship opportunities are not available for this position.
