These technologies provide extensive opportunities for diversification in both the pharma and consumer health space; in areas such as oral care, vitamins, immunity, energy and gastrointestinal remedies.

About your role

You'll play a key role in bringing new products to life — from early formulation through to pilot and production. Working across powders, gums, tablets, and chewables, you’ll combine scientific rigour with creativity to deliver products that perform well and delight consumers.

What you’ll do:

• Develop and refine formulations for solid dosage products, from concept through to scale-up
• Plan and execute NPD projects, ensuring timelines, quality, and deliverables are met
• Evaluate and improve products using sensory testing and feedback to enhance taste, texture, and overall experience
• Collaborate with suppliers (flavour houses and ingredient partners) to develop and source the right components
• Work closely with production teams to support trials, scale-up, and manufacturing readiness
• Ensure quality documentation — writing clear protocols, reports, batch records, and SOPs
• Maintain accurate data and records across formulation systems and project workbooks
• Support packaging and stability testing to ensure product integrity
• Operate and maintain lab and pilot equipment to support development work
• Partner cross-functionally with R&D, Procurement, and Operations to deliver projects end-to-end
