  • Driving structured risk management, commissioning, and handover into BAU operations.

  • Proven experience in technical or engineering project management within food manufacturing or FMCG is a must
  • Hands‑on exposure to packaging innovation, automation, or process engineering (VSP/MAP experience highly regarded).

  • Confidence operating as an embedded project lead, balancing consultancy‑level discipline with practical on‑floor execution.
  • Excellent stakeholder, supplier, and cross‑functional leadership skills.
  • A safety‑first mindset with strong attention to quality and compliance.

What's on Offer

  • A highly visible role within a transformational manufacturing site.
  • Exposure to cutting‑edge co‑innovation programs rarely seen in traditional FMCG operations.
  • Opportunity to influence the future of automation, packaging, and data‑driven food production.
