Your new company

A well-established and forward-thinking food manufacturer in Northern Ireland is seeking an experienced NPD Manager to lead innovation and product development across its diverse portfolio. Known for its commitment to quality and customer satisfaction, the business continues to grow through investment in people, technology, and market-driven innovation.

Your new role

As NPD Manager, you’ll take ownership of the development pipeline from concept to launch, working closely with commercial, technical, and production teams to deliver products that meet customer expectations and regulatory standards. You’ll lead a small but capable team, manage customer presentations, and ensure all projects are delivered on time and within budget. This role offers a blend of strategic thinking and hands-on development, with scope to influence the future direction of the product range.

What you'll need to succeed

You’ll bring proven experience in food product development, ideally within chilled or ambient categories, along with a strong understanding of customer requirements, manufacturing processes, and food safety standards. Excellent project management skills, creativity, and the ability to lead cross-functional teams are essential. A background in food science or a related discipline will be highly beneficial.

What you'll get in return

You’ll join a business that values innovation and collaboration, offering a competitive salary, career development opportunities, and the chance to make a real impact in a growing organisation. The company fosters a supportive culture and encourages continuous improvement across all areas of the business.
