Sitting in a newly created central innovation team a new Innovation Marketing Manager role has been created to drive the Innovation and NPD for a diverse portfolio of brands and product categories.

Reporting into the Group Marketing Director this Innovation Marketing Manager role will be key to delivering a long term innovation and NPD pipeline that is consumer centric, creative and exciting! You will lead the creation of the food innovation strategy and working closely with the Research and Intelligence team you will bring to life innovation concepts that are at the forefront of global food and packaging trends. As an experienced brand and innovation specialist you will be able to utilise your full marketing mix experience to create products that meet consumer needs and are aligned to both brand and customer strategy.
