Job description

NPD Manager | Beauty, Cosmetics & Wellness | Northwest

I’m currently recruiting for an exciting NPD Manager opportunity with a growing beauty, cosmetics and wellness company based in the Northwest of England.

Location: Northwest of England

Working: Hybrid or Remote

We’re looking for an experienced NPD professional with ideally 2+ years of recent NPD experience, although strong candidates with relevant experience will also be considered.

The ideal background would be within beauty, cosmetics, skincare, haircare, wellness or personal care, but we’re also happy to consider candidates from FMCG and food, particularly where there is strong end to end product development experience.

You’ll be responsible for managing products from initial concept through to launch, working closely with suppliers, packaging, artwork, regulatory and internal teams.

This is a great opportunity for someone looking to join a growing business where they can have real ownership and make a genuine impact across the NPD process.
