The work of a food technologist can range from developing recipes and modifying manufacturing processes to managing the safety and legality of food

As a food technologist, you'll work on developing and manufacturing food and drink products. Your main aims will be to make sure the products are safe to consume, made in an efficient way and meet specific regulations.

You may create new products and recipes or work on existing ones in order to improve or modify them in some way. This can include using newly-discovered ingredients, or making changes to create, for example, fat-free versions or to improve the shelf life of an item.

You'll often work closely with product development teams to help deliver factory-ready recipes, based on development kitchen samples. Keeping up with ever-changing food production regulations will be an essential part of your job.

Your tasks and focus may vary depending on where you work, which can include food and drink manufacturing companies, universities, research associations, retailers and local authorities.

**Responsibilities**:
Tasks can vary depending on the area in which you're working, but typically you'll need to:

- modify existing products and processes and develop new ones
- check and improve safety and quality control procedures in your own and suppliers' factories, from the raw material stage through to the finished product
- research current consumer markets and latest technologies to develop new product concepts
- select raw materials and other ingredients from suppliers
- prepare product costings based on raw materials and manufacturing costs to ensure profitable products
- audit suppliers or manage internal audits
- run trials of new products - either alongside or together with product development
- coordinate launches of new products
- deal with any customer complaint investigations or product issues
- compile, check and approve product specifications and ensure clear labelling
- undertake long-term projects with other departments, such as reducing waste by improving efficiency
- work on packaging innovation and technology
- conduct experiments and produce sample products
- design the processes and machinery for making products on repeat with a consistent flavour, colour and texture in large quantities
- build relationships with suppliers and customers, and work with colleagues in other areas such as procurement, sales, technical services and marketing and distribution
- ensure products are profitable
