Product Manager - Food
Zest
Remote-friendly
We are recruiting for an exciting Product Manager opportunity within a fast-paced and ambitious food business supplying innovative products to UK retailers. This is a fantastic role for someone who enjoys owning projects from concept through to launch and wants to play a key part in shaping future product pipelines.
As Product Manager, you will be the driving force behind multiple product development projects, coordinating suppliers, internal stakeholders and customer requirements to ensure launches are delivered on time, to specification and to the highest standards.
The successful candidate will have strong experience within food product development, ideally in a retailer-facing manufacturing or branded environment. You'll understand UK retailer expectations, customer submissions and brand panel processes and you'll be confident managing critical paths, benchmarking products, reviewing samples and supporting first production runs.
This is a fast-paced, collaborative position that requires strong organisational skills, commercial understanding and the ability to manage several projects simultaneously. You will also play an important role in providing category and market insight, identifying emerging trends, spotting opportunities and supporting future innovation.
We're looking for someone with resilience, energy and attention to detail - someone who takes ownership, builds strong relationships and enjoys solving problems. A hands-on approach and a genuine passion for food innovation are essential.
A full UK driving licence is required for this position, along with flexibility for occasional travel, including supplier visits and customer meetings. The position offers 1 day WFH and 4 days on site.
