Full job description

About us

Newly Weds Foods is a leading, privately owned global food ingredients business and has been innovating since 1932. The European division is a market leader in the manufacture of coatings, seasonings and functional ingredient systems.

Today, Newly Weds Foods is a world leader in food ingredient technology. A network of R&D, manufacturing and service facilities around the globe allows us to serve our customers’ needs in more than 68 countries. But despite our size and scope, we’ve continued to be an independent, family-owned business answerable only to the demands of our customers. That’s why we continue to invest in infrastructure, human resources and capacity to keep pace with our customers’ needs and expectations.

The Role

The Engineering Project Manager is responsible for the end-to-end delivery of capital projects across the Ossett site and wider group. This includes full lifecycle ownership—from concept development and scope definition through design, procurement, construction, commissioning, and final handover.

Key Responsibilities

Project Leadership & Delivery

Lead and manage multiple capital projects simultaneously (£100k–£5M+), varying in scale and complexity.
Deliver full project lifecycle: concept, feasibility, scope development, design, procurement, installation, commissioning, qualification, and close-out.
Ensure projects are delivered safely, on time, within budget, and to defined quality standards.
Lead cross-functional teams including Operations, Quality, Engineering, Safety, and external third parties.

Engineering & Design

Develop detailed project scopes, layouts, and engineering solutions for manufacturing, packaging, and distribution systems (e.g., dry blending, pneumatic conveying).
Prepare accurate cost estimates, project schedules, equipment specifications, drawings, and tender documentation and ensure adherence.
Evaluate supplier proposals and support contractor/vendor selection.
Ensure designs meet requirements for efficiency, maintainability, and food safety (BRCGS Issue 9).

Construction, Commissioning & Qualification

Oversee installation, construction, and site execution activities.
Lead Pre-Delivery Inspections (PDI), Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) and Site Acceptance Testing (SAT).
Manage commissioning, performance validation, and operational handover.
Coordinate with production and planning to minimise disruption during implementation.

Contractor & Vendor Management

Manage external contractors, consultants, and OEMs.
Ensure RAMS, permits to work, and safe systems of work are in place and followed.
Support CDM Regulations (2015) compliance, coordinating with Principal Designer/Contractor roles as required.

Health, Safety & Compliance

Champion a strong safety culture aligned with site and group standards.
Ensure compliance with UK regulations and standards, including:
- Health & Safety at Work Act (HSWA) 1974
- CDM Regulations 2015
- PUWER, DSEAR, ATEX, LEV
- UKCA / CE machinery compliance
- COSHH requirements
Support risk assessments and ensure safe project execution at all stages.

Financial & Commercial Management

Develop and manage project budgets, forecasts, and cost control processes.
Track spend, manage change control, and report financial performance.
Deliver projects aligned with approved ROI and business case targets.

Stakeholder Management & Reporting

Engage with Business Leadership, Site Leadership, Operations, Quality, and Group Engineering teams.
Provide structured reporting on KPIs, milestones, risks, and financials.
Manage Leadership & stakeholder expectations across UK and International teams.

Documentation & Governance

Maintain and deliver full project documentation including:
- User Requirement Specification / Owner’s Project Requirements
- Basis of Design (BoD) documentation
- Equipment specifications and drawings
- FAT/SAT protocols
- Training protocols
- Handover documentation (O&M manuals, certifications, as-builts, declarations)
Ensure audit-ready documentation for BRCGS and internal governance requirements.

Continuous Improvement & Innovation

Deliver engineering solutions that improve capacity, productivity, and technology.
Support group-wide process improvements and strategic engineering initiatives.
Contribute to special projects as required.

Person Specification

Bachelor’s degree in an Engineering discipline (Mechanical, Electrical, Chemical, or similar)
Proven experience managing multiple engineering projects in a manufacturing environment
Strong knowledge of process engineering and industrial systems
Demonstrated ability to deliver projects on time, within budget, and to a high standard
Experience with equipment specification, procurement, installation, and commissioning
Excellent interpersonal, analytical, and problem-solving skills
Strong understanding of UK health & safety and regulatory requirements

Desirable

Experience within food manufacturing (bakery, condiments, or dry blending preferred)
Project Management qualification (PRINCE2, PMP, or equivalent)
Experience with MRP/ERP systems
Knowledge of automation and electrical control systems
Working knowledge of ATEX/DSEAR environments

Key Competencies

Strong leadership and cross-functional team management
Commercial awareness and cost control
Structured and detail-oriented approach
Ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines
Excellent communication across all organisational levels

Extra Information

Salary - £80,000 per annum depending on experience.

Travel across UK sites and countries will be essential.

Working Hours - Monday to Friday 08:30am - 5pm with one hour unpaid lunch, due to the nature of this role flexibility will be required.
