Technical Manager, Dorset

I can honestly say this is one of the most aspirational clients I have worked with. Now you can too. Read on to discover how you can bring your Technical innovation to the party.

This is a real breath of fresh air. An entrepreneurial, creatively led, premium branded and own label company with a loyal and growing customer base. There's a buzz to the place, it feels more like an ad agency vibe. NPD, Technical and Commercial teams enhance each other to come up with innovative, premium products which fly off the shelves.

This one-team vision has created a culture of trust. Positive people feel empowered to speak up, share ideas and treat the business like their own. This extends outside work too: social meet ups might be a team day sailing, beach barbecue, volunteer days or charity events, you get the picture, these guys like to share the success.

So, as the Technical Manager you'll have close contact with the customer, attending factory trials at locations in the UK and worldwide, advising on compliance and regulatory requirements, product specs, packaging and labelling. Naturally, bringing new products to market means close working with the NPD and Commercial teams.

To be successful you'll need a minimum of 5 years' food technical experience with exposure to new product launches from concept to shelf. A degree in a Food Science or similar is preferable. Working to BRC standards, you'll need a good understanding of retailer accreditation systems, QMS, HACCP, internal and third-party auditing. Above all you'll embrace building robust customer relationships, working proactively to drive technical excellence and innovation.

So apart from the world travel and beach BBQs what else can you expect? An extensive and creative benefits programme centred on your well-being which includes:

• Flexible working - WFH/office - no problem
• Medical plan
• Health & Wellbeing initiatives
• Discounts on some seriously aspirational products
• Buy extra holidays
• Volunteering days
• Team days & events
