  • Supporting the introduction of new technologies aligned with the Product Development Strategy

What's On Offer

  • £45,000 salary
  • A site-based role at a major food production facility
  • Real influence on how new products are developed, tested, and launched
  • A chance to be part of a collaborative, forward-thinking NPD team

What We're Looking For

  • A degree in Food Science, Chemical Engineering, or a similar technical field
  • Previous experience in food manufacturing (FMCG), ideally in a process, development, or NPD-focused role
  • Understanding of key food production methods-such as extrusion, frying, baking, sheeting, and flavouring
  • Strong problem-solving abilities and a drive for continuous improvement
  • A genuine enthusiasm for food, innovation, and quality

Ready to Help Shape the Future of Food?
