CARA

INNOVATION PROJECT MANAGER

All About Cara

Hey! I’m Cara and I started my role at AAF as Innovation Project Manager. My job involves managing projects from concept to launch, owning internal NPD/EPD processes and always being organised!

Experience

During my time at Sheffield Hallam University, I spent many hours in retail and bar jobs. In addition to this, during my placement year I worked at Stateside Foods as an NPD technologist. My time here was spent learning a lot about the industry, NPD/EPD processes and all things pizza!!

Post university life (COVID days) and my most recent experience in the food industry was at global bakery manufacturer, Grupo Bimbo. As NPD Project Co-Ordinator, I managed the gate process alongside other internal NPD procedures. During my time at Grupo Bimbo, I implemented an innovation process which promoted agile ways of working and ensured projects were consumer centric! This was a great insight into project management.

What I Love About Working at All About Food

I love working at All About Food because I love all things food! Any new product launches into the industry is where my heart is at! All About Food is also a safe space to work in, we are one big family that turns up for each other and works together to achieve our goals.
