We have an exciting opportunity to join the Development team in the role of Development Technologist at our Lightbody site as part of Finsbury Food Group.

With over 135 years of craft baking heritage, Lightbody is proud to be the UK’s largest supplier of celebration cakes. From branded favourites like Disney, Mars, Universal and Thorntons to supermarket own-label products, we produce over 55 million cakes and sweet treats every year right here in Hamilton.

You will benchmark products against the market, identify opportunities for improvement and contribute to continuous innovation and process excellence.
Flexibility in working hours is required to support factory trials and launch activities.

Ideally this is you!

Degree preferred Food Science / Technology / Process Engineering or similar degree / HND equivalent or relevant experience
