Job Description

Innovation Project Manager

Hybrid – Berkshire

£40,000 – £48,000 DOE

Are you ready to take the lead on delivering exciting new product initiatives that shape the future of a household name in the FMCG space?

We’re working in partnership with a globally recognised consumer goods brand that continues to invest in growth and innovation across its extensive portfolio. As the business expands its NPD and innovation capabilities, a new opportunity has arisen for a driven and detail-focused Innovation Project Manager to join the team.

This is a fantastic opportunity to play a key role in turning product concepts into commercial success stories—managing projects from initial scoping right through to post-launch review.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Take ownership of multiple cross-functional initiatives, ensuring clear scope, strong planning and timely execution.
  • Coordinate with a wide range of internal stakeholders, maintaining alignment across departments.
  • Identify and resolve project roadblocks, proactively recommending adjustments to keep things moving.
  • Facilitate project evaluations and contribute to continuous improvement efforts.
  • Oversee documentation, ensuring all key materials are clear, accurate and fit-for-purpose.
  • About you:

    • Experienced in managing product-focused projects within a fast-paced FMCG or consumer goods environment.
    • Commercially aware and highly organised, with a keen eye for process and delivery.
    • A confident communicator who builds strong relationships across functions.
    • Resilient, adaptable, and motivated by bringing new ideas to market.
    • Looking for a role with real impact, ownership, and long-term career potential.
  • If you’re passionate about project delivery and want to be part of a team driving innovation at the heart of a major brand, I’d love to speak with you.
