NPD Process Technologist
Location: Coventry
Salary: £30-35k
Ready to turn bold food ideas into supermarket-ready success stories? Join a fast-paced UK NPD team where creativity meets real-world production.
The Opportunity
We're looking for a hands-on NPD Process Technologist to help bring exciting new food concepts to life. Based in Coventry, you'll play a key role in delivering innovative products from kitchen bench to full-scale factory launch, working at pace, solving challenges, and making a tangible impact on business growth.
What You'll Be Doing
Own the process from idea to launch
Translate concepts into scalable, factory-ready products - hitting cost, quality and waste targets every step of the way.
Get stuck into trials & production
Lead factory trials, capture critical data, and ensure everything runs smoothly, from ingredient ordering to detailed reporting within 72 hours.
Create, test & innovate
Develop product concepts in the kitchen, stay on top of food trends, and work closely with suppliers to bring fresh ideas to the table.
Collaborate across the business
Partner with teams across NPD, Packaging, Technical, Operations, Engineering and more, driving projects forward together.
Deliver compliant, high-quality launches
Own key documentation including cost cards, specs, QAS, and validation processes to ensure safe, robust product launches.
Support customers & suppliers
Present samples, manage submissions, and ensure nutritional and testing data is accurate and ready.
What Makes This Role Exciting
Work on multiple projects at pace - no two days the same
Take products all the way from blue-sky concept to supermarket shelf
Be hands-on in both kitchen and factory environments
Collaborate with UK & European teams and customers
Influence innovation while thinking commercially and practically
What You'll Bring
Degree in Food Science / Food Technology (or equivalent experience)
Experience in food manufacturing or NPD (bakery a bonus!)
A passion for food trends and innovation
Strong organisational skills & attention to detail
Ability to juggle multiple projects and work at pace
Confident communicator with a collaborative approach
Comfortable in both kitchen and factory environments
Flexible approach to hours when trials demand it
The Details
Based in Coventry with occasional travel (customers, suppliers, site visits)
Driving licence beneficial
Exposure to cross-functional teams and real career development
If this looks of interest, click apply and I will be in touch with more details
