Job Description

Feastables is on a mission to create the world's most engaging brand. As the CPG industry teeters on the edge of transformation, trust has shifted from traditional corporate giants to innovative individual creators. With the backing of MrBeast, the world's most influential creator, and our unwavering commitment to transparency and superior quality, we are strategically positioned to become the go-to snacking brand for future generations.

At the heart of our ethos is the belief that anything is possible. This belief ignites our innovation and drives us to push boundaries. It's what enables us to deliver incredible products and unique, engaging experiences that keep our fans and customers coming back for more. 

Though recognized for our chocolate bars, our vision goes beyond a single product category. We aim to offer a diverse product range, each item tailored to meet our customers' unique tastes and needs. Regardless of the variety, all of our products share a common trait - the guarantee of quality and fun that Feastables is known for. 

We're not just building a brand; we're crafting a legacy and just getting started. We are charting an unprecedented path, at an unbelievable velocity, and seeking extraordinary individuals to help us shape the next iconic global brand. Together, we will build something truly remarkable that will resonate with customers worldwide and stand the test of time.

About The Role:

As a Technical Project Manager at Feastables, you will play a pivotal role in ensuring the technical readiness of our products and projects.

This is a chance to be part of a team where learning and growth are continuous, and where your contributions have a direct impact on the direction and success of one of the world’s fastest growing CPG businesses. Your contributions will be key to the successful execution of our innovative and commercial projects, and we are excited to tell you more about the journey ahead!

  • Develop and refine processes to enhance efficiency and ensure seamless communication across all involved departments
  • Track progress and provide regular updates to leadership, highlighting risks, dependencies, and mitigation strategies
  • Monitor technical and operational metrics/KPI’s to inform decision-making and continuous improvement efforts

Recipe For Success:

  • 5+ years of experience in project management, ideally within the Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) industry, with a focus on technical or operational roles
  • Proven track record of managing cross-functional projects and partners
  • Strong understanding of technical readiness requirements, including regulatory compliance, packaging standards, and product development processes

  • Exceptional organizational skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines in a fast-paced environment
  • Strong problem-solving skills and a proactive approach to identifying and addressing potential roadblocks
  • Excellent communication skills, capable of translating complex technical requirements into actionable steps for diverse stakeholders
