Do you have experience working as a Process Technologist in the food industry?
A leading UK food manufacturer is looking for a Process Technologist to join their NPD team. This role is perfect for someone who loves working with bakery products and enjoys seeing ideas move from the kitchen to full-scale production.
Responsibilities:
Run trials in the factory (e.g., testing how products are made, packaged, and baked).
Plan and organise trials, including ordering ingredients and coordinating with other teams like Production and Engineering.
Record and review trial results (e.g., machine settings, baking times, weights, and decoration details).
Collect samples for testing things like shelf life, nutrition and customer approvals.
Manage testing for food safety and nutrition results, keeping records up to date.
Write reports based on trial results and share them with the team.
Work closely with different departments to ensure smooth product launches.
Help with admin tasks, ad-hoc projects and responding to customer sample requests.
Requirements:
Experience as a Process Technologist in the food industry (bonus if it’s bakery-related).
A good understanding of how bakery ingredients work.
Basic food safety and hygiene qualifications (HACCP Level 3 preferred).
Strong attention to detail, communication, and organisation skills.
Good IT skills (Microsoft Word, Excel, Outlook).
A flexible, hands-on attitude and the ability to work with different teams to meet deadlines.
A degree in a relevant science subject is desirable but not essential.
If you’re looking for your next challenge and want to work in a supportive, dynamic team for a leading food manufacturer, we want to hear from you!
