Interim NPD Manager
📍 Greater Manchester | £500 per day 📅 1-Month Contract | September Start
Are you an experienced NPD professional who can hit the ground running in a fast-paced food manufacturing environment?
I'm working with a growing FMCG business that requires an Interim NPD Manager to provide immediate support during a busy period. This is a hands-on role where you'll be managing multiple projects, working closely with major UK retailers and driving product development from concept through to launch.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
To be considered, you'll need:
- Proven NPD experience within UK food manufacturing
- Strong own label experience with major retailers
- Experience managing multiple development projects simultaneously
- The ability to work at pace and make decisions quickly
- A practical, hands-on approach with excellent stakeholder management skills

This is an excellent opportunity for an established Interim NPD Manager, Senior NPD Technologist or NPD Project Manager available to start in September.
The contract is initially for one month, with the potential for extension depending on business requirements.
If you're immediately available and have the relevant retailer-facing own label experience, I'd love to hear from you.
