THE ROLE:

Reporting to the Senior Insights & Marketing Manager, the NPD Manager is accountable for leading the full product lifecycle, from identifying market opportunities through to delivering successful product launches. The role sits within the Brand team and works closely with the leadership, sales, finance, procurement, technical, production and the wider operational teams, as well as suppliers and innovation partners.

This role is responsible for shaping product direction, delivering concept-to-launch activity efficiently and to budget, improving product quality and performance, and ensuring compliance, quality and risk management throughout development and improvement activity.

The postholder will also support product improvement initiatives, define and assure critical quality parameters, minimise variation and defects, and contribute to the seamless transfer of products within capital investment plans.

You will also perform defined duties within the Quality Management System, including Quality Control Points, sensory panels, artwork sign-off, root cause analysis, HACCP participation, and internal auditing.

Success in this role requires strong ownership, good judgement, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced cross-functional environment.

WHAT YOU WILL BRING:

Proven experience and success in new product development and product management within food manufacturing or FMCG.
Strong understanding of product development processes, manufacturing, and food products, supported by scientific and practical knowledge.
Analytical mindset with commercial awareness, strong project management skills, and the ability to influence across teams.
Proficient IT skills, including Microsoft Outlook, Excel, and other relevant tools.
A degree or HNC in Food Science, Nutrition or a related discipline would be desirable.

WHAT WE OFFER:

Permanent, competitive salaried role.
Opportunities for professional growth and access to development programs to enhance your skills.
A dynamic and supportive working environment with a friendly team.
Access to free counselling and support services for personal and professional support.
Free 24/7 GP helpline.
Optional salary sacrifice scheme.
