Life at JDE Peet's? It's not just a job, it's a whole vibe upgrade.

We know what actually matters to you - job security, real growth, and not burning out by 30. So here's the menu of what you actually get:

    🚲 Work-life balance, but make it real: 25 annual leave days + 12 ADV days (yes, that's basically an extra month off). Plus a tax-efficient bike plan — skip the traffic, get fit, save money. Win-win-win.

    🧠 Well-being that goes beyond a wellness app: 1-on-1 lifestyle coaching on nutrition, sleep, stress and recovery. Real sleep workshops if you're running on empty. Confidential, judgment-free support for smoking, alcohol, or anything life throws at you — anonymous if you want it. Plus a fitness contribution and health insurance discount, because your body clocks in too.

    💪 We've got your back, literally: Ergonomic assessments and workplace evaluations so your job doesn't wreck your body. Because "sustainable career" should mean your spine too.

    📈 Growth that's actually funded: €1,500 net learning budget every calendar year — yours to spend on you. No red tape, no "maybe next year."

    💰 Security you can actually count on: Fixed monthly salary + 8% holiday allowance + 8.33% year-end bonus, plus a pension plan where we've got skin in the game too.

    🏡 Flexibility that respects your life: Work-from-home allowance and commuting allowance, because your 9-to-5 shouldn't own your whole day.

What you'll be doing:

• Leading product development from concept to market launch — benchtop, scale-up, the full journey
• Running small to medium cross-functional projects as the R&D lead
• Translating consumer and business needs into products that hit quality, cost and sustainability targets
• Managing specification lifecycle from creation to retirement
• Driving cost and process optimisation without compromising on quality

What you'll get:

• A career with real depth: diverse projects, continuous learning, international exposure
• Hands-on impact from day one in a collaborative, entrepreneurial culture
• Cross-functional visibility across Marketing, Procurement, Manufacturing, Quality and Supply Chain
• Hybrid working, competitive benefits, strong pension and generous holiday allowance
• An inclusive team where your ideas genuinely matter

Who you are:
Curious, hands-on and passionate about food science and technology. You're comfortable leading projects and working across functions, and you want your work to translate into products that people actually enjoy every day.

Ready to make your mark on the future of coffee? Let's talk.

• Degree in Food Science, Chemistry, Food Technology or a related engineering discipline
• 1 - 3 years of experience in product development within food, beverage or FMCG
• Solid understanding of ingredients, processing technologies and development methodologies
