Production Lead – NutEx Specialty Ingredients

Job Description

Why join us  

Get ready to Own the next frontier of specialty ingredients as a Bactotechnology Production Production Lead for NutEx Specialty Ingredients at Nutreco, an SHV company. By translating innovative phyto and bacterial research into safe, scalable production, you’ll help shape a new category of solutions that elevate animal health and performance. Own your contribution, own your craftsmanship, own your ambition. 

About Nutreco Exploration 

In 2021, we established Nutreco Exploration (NutEx) to develop novel ultra-specialty ingredients and future-ready functional feeds. NutEx advances two innovation paths — phytotechnology and bactotechnology — from early discovery through commercialization. 

In our Nutreco Garden of the Future (NuGaFu), we explore how nature can help animals handle everyday challenges in smarter, more resilient ways. Through our work, we develop two kinds of EDGEOS solutions: BactoComplexes, inspired by beneficial bacteria, and PhytoComplexes, built from powerful plants that influence how animals cope with stressors beyond nutrition alone. 

By turning these natural insights into practical, scalable ingredients, NutEx is building a new generation of ultra‑specialty solutions that strengthen animals in a more holistic way. Joining this team means helping shape a breakthrough area for NutEx and owning your part in bringing these next‑generation EDGEOS products to life. 

What you’ll do 

As soon as a new NutEx BactoComplex (solutions inspired by helpful bacteria) or PhytoComplex (solutions built from plants) is selected for development your work begins: translating early scientific insight into a robust, scalable production approach, validating feasibility, establishing procedures, selecting manufacturing partners, and ensuring that every batch meets NutEx quality and cost expectations. You own the journey from first production trials all the way to stable global supply. You will:  

  • Shape the production approach for new NutEx products by assessing feasibility, required process steps, capacity needs and expected production costs. 

  • Establish scalable production procedures using in‑house expertise and secure a smooth IBP process and reliable end‑to‑end supply. 

  • Coordinate with external partners involved in supplying and processing samples, ensuring good communication, reliable delivery, and consistent quality during early production phases. 

  • Safeguard product specifications, quality standards, and cost frameworks while driving continuous improvements in efficiency and consistency. 

  • Partner with Regulatory, QA and Procurement to ensure compliant, safe and cost‑effective production across all markets. 

  • Share knowledge and provide training to Nutreco Operating Companies and partners to support successful commercial roll‑out. 

Who we’re looking for 

You’re someone who is hands‑on, proactive and ready to own a complex, cross‑functional role at the intersection of science, scale‑up and supply. You bring a curious mindset, strong initiative, and the ability to operate with autonomy while collaborating across multiple teams and partners. You bring: 

  • A Master’s degree in Supply Chain or a related field.  

  • Proven experience with supply chain or production operations, ideally including contract manufacturing, logistics or industrialization. 

  • Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively with stakeholders across teams and geographies. 

  • Fluency in English; Spanish is a plus. 

  • Flexibility to travel up to 20%. 

This role will be based in Arbon, Thurgau, Switzerland. Full-time on-site presence in our Garden of the Future site is mandatory for close collaboration with the team. 

What you’ll receive 

  • Full‑time position 

  • Competitive remuneration package and strong pension scheme 

  • 25 vacation days, with the option to buy/sell a limited number 

  • Opportunities for global project involvement and business travel 

  • A flexible working environment 

How and why to find out more 

If you’re excited to help build a new frontier in animal nutrition, this is your chance to own your development, your expertise, and your future. We aim to review applications within five business days and will be in touch as soon as possible. #OwnIt
