Experience will have been gained within food from either a manufacturing, brand or retail environment working with chilled & ready meal products. You must have proven NPD successes, can hold your own when it comes to recipe development and be able to demonstrate your expertise in launching great products. This is a rare chance to really build on your career with a high profile team so you will need to have first class project management, communication and organisational skills with the ability to drive and influence the NPD agenda for the company.
