Are you the person who spots a labelling error from a mile away and actually enjoys keeping specifications watertight? If precision, compliance and well-run processes are your thing, this could be right up your street.

We're working with a global food business looking to appoint a Senior Specifications Technologist to take ownership of customer specifications and product information across retail and food service markets. They work with some of the biggest names in food, giving you opportunity to work with them and their popular products!

This is a real close-knit site that ensure their staff are looked after. Progression and development is at the forefront of this company's mind.

What you'll be doing

  • Leading the creation and ongoing maintenance of customer specifications for new and existing products
  • Ensuring specifications remain fully up to date following EPDs, supplier changes and legal or customer updates
  • Reviewing specifications to meet BRC standards and customer-specific requirements
  • Managing translation and artwork approval processes to ensure legal and customer compliance
  • Keeping abreast of changes in legal labelling requirements across multiple markets, engaging third-party approvals where needed
  • Acting as a key point of contact for customer specification queries and questionnaires
  • Supporting and attending internal and external audits
  • Developing clear procedures and work instructions for the specifications function
  • Managing, coaching and developing a Specification Technologist through structured training and day-to-day support

Why consider it?

You'll be stepping into a senior, visible role where attention to detail genuinely matters. There's autonomy, scope to improve processes, and the chance to develop people.

If you're ready to take ownership of specifications and want a role where your expertise is genuinely valued, this one's worth a conversation. Please call Owen on (phone number removed).
