We’re working with a well-established food manufacturing business based in Lincolnshire, who are looking for an NPD Technologist to join their growing team.
This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys seeing projects through from concept to launch, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and isn’t afraid to roll their sleeves up and get stuck in.
Key Responsibilities
* Managing NPD projects end-to-end, from initial brief through to successful launch
* Owning and managing critical paths, ensuring timelines, costs, and quality standards are met
* Acting as a customer-facing point of contact, confidently presenting concepts, progress updates, and solutions
* Working cross-functionally with Technical, Operations, and Commercial teams
* Supporting trials, factory launches, and continuous improvement projects
* Bringing creativity and fresh ideas to product development
What We’re Looking For
* Previous experience in an NPD Technologist or similar role within FMCG / food manufacturing
* Strong project management skills with proven experience managing critical paths
* Confident customer-facing experience
* A creative mindset with a practical, hands-on approach
* Organised, proactive, and comfortable working in a fast-moving environment
* Someone who genuinely enjoys product development and being involved at every stage
Why Apply?
* Opportunity to work with a supportive and collaborative team
* A varied role with real ownership and visibility
* A chance to be creative while still being commercially focused
If you’re an NPD Technologist who loves juggling projects, working with customers, and bringing products to life, this could be a great next step.
