Are you passionate about taking a product from kitchen concept to supermarket shelf? Do you love the idea of working with sweet treats and seeing your work come to life in delicious form? We’re looking for a hands-on NPD Technologist to join our fast-paced and friendly food manufacturing team.
What You’ll Be Doing:
Support the development of new products from initial trials through to launch.
Plan and run factory trials – making sure everything from ingredients to packaging is spot-on.
Work closely with Production, Engineering, Planning, and Technical teams to get products ready for full-scale production.
Capture detailed data during trials (think machine settings, bake times, decoration placement, etc).
Collect samples for shelf-life, nutrition testing, and customer approvals.
Keep things tidy by ensuring new ingredients and tools are stored properly post-trial.
Help with paperwork, sample bookings, courier requests, and general NPD admin to keep projects moving smoothly.
Be part of internal and customer meetings to share progress and updates.
Support first production runs and help ensure we hit all the right quality standards.
What We’re Looking For:
Experience in a similar NPD or Process Technologist role within food manufacturing – bakery experience is a big plus!
Good understanding of ingredients and how they behave in real-life production.
Strong communication and teamwork skills – you'll work with lots of different departments.
Organised and detail-focused – you’ll need to keep track of trial data and project timelines.
Flexible and hands-on – someone who’s happy to roll their sleeves up and get involved on the factory floor.
Comfortable using Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, Outlook).
HACCP and Food Hygiene qualifications (Level 3 preferred).
Why You’ll Love It Here:
Be part of a supportive, close-knit NPD team with a genuine passion for what they do.
See your ideas and work hit the shelves and make customers smile.
No two days are the same – you’ll be involved in all sorts of exciting projects and sweet creations.
A place where creativity meets production, and where your contribution really matters.
Ready to bring new ideas to life and play a key role in creating exciting, high-quality baked goods?
