Process Technologist

If you enjoy seeing products go from idea trial supermarket shelf, this one s worth a look.

I m working with a large manufacturer looking to strengthen their Process Development team.

This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys being in the factory, running trials, solving problems and making sure products actually work at scale not just in the test kitchen when everyone s pretending the process is straightforward .

What you ll be doing:

• Taking products from concept through to launch
• Scaling products from test bakery to full production
• Running factory trials alongside Operations, Process and Technical teams
• Sourcing new raw materials and ingredients
• Managing projects across key retail accounts including Morrisons and Asda
• Supporting customer submissions when needed
• Conducting store visits and benchmarking competitor products
• Spotting opportunities for innovation and quality improvements

What they re looking for:

• Experience within food manufacturing
• Ideally recent bakery experience
• Someone who can manage projects independently
• Organised, proactive and comfortable working cross-functionally
• Food related qualification ideal, but not essential

Why consider it?

• Proper end-to-end NPD exposure
• Lots of factory and trial involvement
• Exposure to major retail customers
• Stable, growing manufacturer
• Clear opportunity to develop your career in Process/NPD

If you re happy where you are but open to hearing about a solid bakery process role, it s worth a conversation.
