A research and development chef creates new flavours and food products based on consumer trends and preferences. Meet Patrick Clifford, a Principal Research and Development Chef at PepsiCo. Patrick tells us about his job to create some of our favourite snacks to be sold in supermarkets worldwide, as part of the EIT Food ‘Day in the Life’ video series.
The predicted labour shortage in the agrifood industry by 2030 coupled with the lack of careers information young people receive on food and farming roles has driven the development of this series. The agrifood industry has a variety of exciting jobs on offer throughout the food value chain. As such, this video series aims to inspire young audiences to consider a career within the agrifood sector.
We recommend this video for teenagers and young adults to learn more about a career as a research and development chef.
