If you enjoy taking products from early concept through to successful on-shelf launch and thrive in collaborative, fast-paced environments this could be a fantastic next step.
The Product Developer will join a collaborative NPD team and report into a Senior NPD Manager, supporting the delivery of new products and improvements to existing ranges from early concept through to on-shelf launch. The role is hands-on and varied, combining kitchen-based development with structured project coordination, cross-functional collaboration and exposure to external manufacturing partners. Responsibilities include supporting NPD timelines and stage-gate processes, developing and trialling recipes, building product costs and nutritional information, briefing manufacturers during trials and scale-up, supporting ingredient sourcing and approvals, maintaining quality standards alongside a Product Technologist, contributing to packaging content and participating in regular tastings and quality reviews.
The successful candidate will have at least one year of experience in food product development or a related FMCG, manufacturing or food science environment. They will also have a strong interest in NPD processes, good organisational skills and a proactive, detail-focused mindset. You will be comfortable working cross-functionally and be keen to learn.
In return, this role offers the chance to develop your career within a purpose-driven, fast-paced business, with hybrid and flexible working, strong learning and development support, a collaborative team culture and a excellent range of benefits from day one.
