Are you passionate about packaging innovation and product development? We're looking for a Packaging Technologist to join a fast-paced manufacturing environment, supporting a diverse portfolio of own-brand and private label products from concept through to launch.

In this role, you'll lead packaging development for mid- to high-complexity projects, ensuring that solutions are robust, cost-effective, and delivered on time. Working closely with suppliers, production teams, and NPD (New Product Development), you'll be instrumental in turning creative ideas into successful, shelf-ready products across a range of materials including plastics and glass.

Key Responsibilities

Develop and deliver innovative packaging solutions for new product development (NPD) within a manufacturing setting.

Manage supplier relationships, briefing on components, tooling, artwork, and testing requirements.

Coordinate colour matching, cutter guides, and specification approvals.

Ensure accurate and timely documentation (e.g., NLFs, pallet plans, and specifications).

Attend production trials and first production runs to validate packaging performance.

Monitor and communicate project status, risks, and priorities effectively.

Support junior team members and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives.

What We're Looking For

Proven experience in packaging development, ideally within FMCG or manufacturing.

Strong understanding of plastic and glass packaging materials and associated production processes.

Confident project manager with the ability to juggle multiple workstreams and collaborate cross-functionally.

Detail-oriented, hands-on, and solutions-focused approach.

Prior experience in a manufacturing environment is highly desirable.

Proactive mindset with excellent prioritisation and problem-solving skills.

Why Apply?

Make an Impact: Contribute to meaningful, high-profile projects that directly influence product success.

Collaborative Team Culture: Work within a supportive, inclusive, and innovation-driven environment.

Professional Growth: Access to career development pathways, mentoring, and opportunities to expand your technical skills.

Dynamic Work Environment: Be part of a team that thrives on creativity, efficiency, and continuous improvement.

Competitive Salary & Benefits: Including life assurance, employee assistance programme, benefits platform, and more.

If you're ready to bring your packaging expertise to a dynamic, growth-oriented team, we'd love to hear from you.

Apply now and help shape the future of packaging innovation.
