How our sorting works

The order in which job vacancies are displayed is determined by a composite score based on the following factors:

  • Keyword Relevance: How well your search terms match the vacancy details. We prioritize matches found in the job title, followed by job requirements, location names, and educational levels. Matches within general employer information or the organization's name carry a lower weight.
  • Commercial Prioritization (Premium Jobs): Vacancies paid for by employers ('Premium' or 'Sponsored') receive a ranking boost and will appear higher in the search results.
  • Recency (Date Relevance): Newer vacancies are prioritized. The relevance score of a vacancy is reduced by half once the posting is older than 30 days.
  • Proximity (Distance Relevance): Vacancies located closer to your search location are ranked higher. For vacancies located more than 30 km from the search center, the relevance score is halved.
The final ranking is established by multiplying all these individual factors to calculate the total relevance score.

    Job description

    Got a passion for food innovation and love seeing your ideas land on shelf? We're on the hunt for a Senior NPD Technologist to join a fast-moving, creative NPD team based in Leeds.

    This is your chance to take real ownership of exciting new product development, driving concepts from first idea through to launch across both retailer and own-brand ranges. You'll be right at the heart of the action, developing standout recipes, improving existing products. The position is 4 days on site and 1 day WFH.

    You'll get stuck into everything from kitchen trials and supplier innovation to artwork sign-off, nutritional and shelf-life testing, customer samples and retailer briefs. Alongside the hands-on work, you'll step up as a senior voice in the team, mentoring a Junior NPD Technologist, sharing your know-how and deputising for the NPD Manager when needed.

    If you thrive in a busy food manufacturing environment, love collaborating and enjoy turning trends and briefs into brilliant products consumers want to buy, this could be the role for you.

    If you have relevant experience, please call Nicola on (phone number removed) or email your updated CV to (url removed)
