We work with our customers to make the products you love even better. The oils we produce go into making your chocolate extra-creamy or putting the crunch into your croissant. And it’s not just food — we work across industries to make products that are higher quality, healthier and better for the planet.
Everything we do is about Making Better Happen™.

You have strong experience in customer-facing food application, technical service, or product development roles.
You have experience working within Dairy, Savoury, Plant-Based Foods, and/or Foodservice categories.
You possess a strong understanding of industrial food processing and ingredient functionality.
You have a commercial mindset and can translate technical concepts into compelling customer value propositions.
You are an excellent communicator with strong stakeholder management and relationship-building skills.
You are comfortable managing multiple projects and customer priorities within an international business environment.
You are proactive, collaborative, and passionate about innovation and customer partnership.

In return AAK offers
