Yo-Chi was created to bring together seriously good frozen yogurt and even better energy in spaces where everyone feels welcome, happy and inspired. We're a proud family-owned Australian business that's grown year on year, with even bigger goals ahead. With a strong and expanding footprint, we're driven to make a genuine difference through the impact we have and the positive energy we bring. That's how we Share the Chi.
We're looking for a food-obsessed NPD Specialist to lead end-to-end product development across food and merchandise. Basically, looking for Yo-Chi's new product visionary.
This is the perfect role for someone who spots trends before they become trends, is always thinking about flavours, and has a strong instinct for what fits the Yo-Chi brand. You'll take ideas from concept through to launch, creating products that are playful, exciting, on‐brand and commercially smart.
What You'll Do
* Own the full NPD process from idea to launch, working closely with cross‐functional teams.
* Help develop new frozen yogurt flavours, toppings, seasonal LTOs and merchandise.
* Turn trends and customer insights into commercially viable products.
* Run trials, tastings and cross‐functional NPD meetings.
* Manage timelines, briefs, specs, approvals and milestones in Asana.
* Work closely with suppliers to brief, develop and refine products.
* Partner with Operations, Supply Chain, Marketing and Brand to ensure strong execution.
* Support rollout into venues and contribute to global NPD initiatives as the business grows.
What we're looking for
* A genuine foodie with strong awareness of trends, flavours and cultural moments.
* Great brand taste and a sharp instinct for what fits Yo-Chi - and what doesn't.
* Experience in NPD, menu development or a similar product‐focused role.
* Strong commercial common sense, with an understanding of quality, cost and logistics.
* Confidence working with suppliers and cross‐functional teams.
* Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
* Strong organisation and admin skills, with the ability to manage multiple moving parts.
* A naturally confident, kind and collaborative approach.
Essentially, you'll become Yo-Chi's innovation machine - helping keep the brand exciting for our community here and around the world.
