Location: London (Hybrid)
3 month contract initially, looking for an immediate start
Type: Full-time | Growing Functional Food Business
Are you an organised, proactive project manager with a passion for high-quality food and beverage production? Join our fast-scaling functional food business in London and help us deliver exceptional liquid products — from condiments and syrups to popsicles and beyond — to clients who care about quality as much as we do.
The Role
We’re looking for a Supply Chain Manager to take full ownership of our F&B liquid production runs — overseeing everything from planning and procurement through to manufacturing, logistics, and final delivery. This is a hands‑on role at the heart of our operations, perfect for someone who loves driving multiple projects at once in a fast‑paced, collaborative environment.
What You’ll Do
* Manage end‑to‑end production runs across condiments, syrups, popsicles, and other liquid products — from scheduling to client delivery.
* Keep projects on time and on budget, tracking milestones and financials throughout.
* Coordinate across teams — procurement, logistics, and account management — to keep production moving smoothly.
* Liaise with manufacturing partners in London (Vauxhall) and New York, ensuring seamless scheduling and communication.
* Uphold quality standards, collaborating with QA to meet regulatory and brand requirements.
* Solve problems fast, identifying risks early and implementing corrective actions.
* Champion continuous improvement, reviewing post‑run outcomes to enhance efficiency and reduce waste.
* Report clearly and concisely on project status, KPIs, and risks for internal stakeholders.
What You’ll Bring
* 3–5+ years’ project management experience in F&B manufacturing, beverages, or consumer goods.
* Strong understanding of liquid/semi‑liquid production (syrups, sauces, condiments, etc.).
* Experience managing multi‑site or international production.
* Excellent organisational, time management, and stakeholder communication skills.
* Familiarity with supply chain and procurement processes.
* Working knowledge of food quality and safety standards (HACCP, BRC desirable).
* Proficiency in Microsoft Office and project management tools (e.g. Monday.com, Asana, Smartsheet).
* A proactive, solutions‑focused approach — calm under pressure, always ready to adapt.
Who You Are
* Detail‑oriented but commercially aware.
* Collaborative, communicative, and energised by teamwork.
* Passionate about food, beverages, and operational excellence.
Why Join Us
* Be part of a growing, purpose‑driven company reshaping functional food.
* Work across exciting international projects.
* Collaborate with a small, ambitious team where your ideas make an impact.
* Enjoy a dynamic, entrepreneurial culture with real ownership and growth opportunities.
