We provide practical solutions that cover all stages of a product's life cycle from consumer insight and ingredient innovation to food safety consultancy and global regulatory advice. It is an exciting time for the business as we seek to grow within the UK and internationally. The Opportunity We are seeking energetic, hardworking, and hands-on individuals to join our world-class team for either 10- or 12-week summer placements in 2025.

A Day in the Life As a Summer Student, you will be part of our vibrant Cooking Instructions team, applying your food preparation and analytical skills to one or more projects. You'll deepen your knowledge of cooking instructions, consumer packaging, and food safety while working on projects with fast turnarounds to meet product launch deadlines. This will require strong teamwork, communication, and attention to detail to deliver high-quality results on time. Your tasks will include conducting time and temperature tests, performing quality and sensory assessments, and either verifying existing instructions or generating new ones for products entering the market.
