What you’ll be doing:

  • Leading and supporting factory trials from concept through to launch
  • Troubleshooting process challenges and driving practical solutions
  • Collaborating with NPD, production, and technical teams
  • Ensuring products scale up efficiently while maintaining quality and consistency
  • Continuously identifying opportunities to improve processes and performance

What we’re looking for:

  • A true foodie with a passion for how products are made
  • Someone hands-on, proactive, and naturally curious
  • Strong problem-solving skills and a can-do attitude
  • Excellent communication and teamwork abilities

This opportunity would suit:

  • A graduate with a relevant degree and industry placement experience looking to kickstart their career
  • OR an established technologist ready for a fresh challenge in a dynamic environment

Why apply?

You’ll be joining a supportive business where you can make a real impact, develop your skills, and grow your career within a fast-paced food manufacturing setting.

If you enjoy getting stuck in, figuring things out, and bringing products to life—this could be the perfect role for you.
