Are you technically minded with a background in refrigeration and a passion for bringing engineered products to life? A well-established manufacturer of critical refrigeration systems for healthcare and laboratory use is looking for a Refrigeration Product Manager to drive innovation, lead new product development, and support product performance across a global customer base.
The Company
This independently operated division of a larger group specialises in the design, development, and support of temperature-sensitive refrigeration products used across hospitals, laboratories, pharmacies, and academic environments. With over 100 active products ranging from essential fridges to advanced connected units, the business combines agile thinking with the backing of a global manufacturing network.
Having recently invested in product development and international supply partnerships, the company is entering a key growth phase with a strong roadmap of new launches, including Wi-Fi and Bluetooth-enabled systems.
The Role
As Product Manager, you will take ownership of the product strategy and technical roadmap for the refrigeration portfolio. Working at the intersection of R&D, compliance, commercial, and service functions, you’ll drive product innovation from concept through to launch, ensuring technical excellence, customer alignment, and market readiness.
This is a hands-on, cross-functional role with clear influence over product direction, serviceability, and long-term performance. You’ll also serve as a technical expert supporting customer escalations and ensuring regulatory compliance across the UK and international markets.
Key Responsibilities
Lead full lifecycle product management across a range of refrigeration and cold storage systems.
Own the NPI/NPD process, from concept and specification to launch and continuous improvement.
Drive cross-functional collaboration with engineering, quality, sales, and service teams.
Ensure regulatory compliance (UK and international) for medical and laboratory-grade appliances.
Act as a technical escalation point for warranty, service, and customer queries.
Maintain and improve technical documentation and training resources for internal and external stakeholders.
Analyse product performance and support margin improvement through innovation and problem-solving.
What We’re Looking For
Background in refrigeration, medical devices, white goods, or technical appliances.
Proven experience in product management, NPD/NPI, or technical leadership.
Knowledge of control systems (e.g. CAREL controllers) and refrigeration regulations.
Commercially aware with strong project management and problem-solving skills.
Confident working across engineering, quality, and commercial functions.
Degree, HNC/D or technical apprenticeship in an engineering discipline.
