The Role
Reporting into the Development Manager, you’ll be a part of a dedicated NPD team and support the creation of exciting new products that will be launched into the major UK retailers. You’ll also be benchmarking new and existing ranges, ensuring all quality, technical and production needs are met whilst keeping up to date with the latest movements in this fast-moving industry. You’ll also ensure that you manage projects in line with the critical path and commercial targets using recipe management systems to generate all key recipe information and costings.
Part of your role will also include scaling up concept samples in the factories, recording all information as well as producing trial reports to form data-driven conclusions.
With your knowledge of emerging markets and understanding of consumer trends, you’ll help drive innovation and support the team to deliver compelling customer presentations that demonstrate how products will make a real impact in the market place.
We are looking for an enthusiastic Food Science Graduate or Development Technologist with creative flair. A good commercial awareness and an eye for up-and-coming food trends is also a must have, and you’ll need great communication, organisation, and presentation skills too.
If you’re a passionate and driven team player looking to apply your creativity and NPD skills, then apply now or call on 0345 2600 737/ 07700 137 110 to find out more.
