About Britvic
The name behind big household favourites like Pepsi, Robinsons, Fruit Shoot and J2O, Britvic is one of the UK's leading players in the FMCG market. With our reputation built on bringing innovative ideas to market, both in the UK and around the world, we're just as keen to develop fresh talent - making this a supportive and exciting place to work.

About this role
We’re on a journey to become the most dynamic, creative & admired soft drinks company in the world and we’re always searching for new ways to refresh, hydrate and entertain. Our history of innovation stretches way back to the 1930s, when a Britvic rep mixed lemon juice, water, sugar and barley crystals to quench the thirst of tennis players at Wimbledon. Today, our Innovation team’s pioneering spirit, scientific know-how and technical smarts are behind the breakthroughs that excite and delight our customers.

We’re currently looking to strengthen our Consumer Innovation team by appointing an accomplished Marketing Innovation specialist who will lead projects which last for generations and have a massive impact on the growth of the company and on the enrichment of consumers’ lives -  new brands, new ranges, new formats, new technologies.

With an exciting range of innovation projects in the pipeline, and an ambition to become a major player in the global soft drinks market, it's a fantastic time to join Britvic and help us to deliver our vision.

     * Brand lead innovation or brand marketing experience in the FMCG sector
