The mission of the function is to drive Global Business Growth through the identification and development of products that delight consumers. The team identifies, and measures key design attributes and develops core R&D capability in Consumer Science to drive superior product design and help produce products that delight consumers.

You will work on a wide range of different projects including process/ingredient changes and how it affects the sensorial experience, new flavour development or measuring product design attributes of prototypes and competitors, working with the expert sensory panel to translate consumer attributes into technical solutions to improve the total product experience. You may also work on a wide range of different projects in Oral Health and Skin Health and define consumer needs and expectations and how these can be translated to product attributes (such as the taste, or sensorial experience during use).
