6 days ago
At AAK, we are dedicated to making better happen. We specialize in plant-based oils that are value-adding ingredients in many products. Our team of experts is passionate about developing innovative solutions for our customers.
About the RoleWe are seeking an experienced Chocolate Production Specialist to join our team at our Global Confectionery Center of Excellence in Aarhus, Denmark. As a key member of our production team, you will be responsible for transforming ideas and projects into finished chocolates with unique properties.
- You will work closely with dedicated colleagues who share your passion for chocolate to support developers and customer technicians in the design and execution of development-oriented or customer-driven trials.
- Contributing to teaching AAK's regional colleagues and core customers in chocolate processes and product properties at AAK academies.
- Supporting sales and marketing through the production of inspiration and taste samples for exhibitions and seminars.
You will be part of a strong team of six colleagues who work closely together with hands-on production of chocolate and confectionery to test, prove, document, and showcase our ingredient solutions. You will work with advanced analysis equipment in our mini chocolate factory and implement sensory analysis to quantify the benefits of our ingredients.
- Mixing, rolling, and conching chocolates, compounds, and fillings.
- Tempering chocolate and molding pralines and bars.
- Carrying out analysis – durability, texture, viscosity, rheology, sensory, melt profiles (DSC), etc.
- Analyzing correlations in applications, e.g., textures and how chocolate behaves under specific conditions.
- Operating and maintaining existing chocolate and analysis equipment as well as commissioning new equipment.
- Contributing to maintaining a well-functioning, safe, and clean chocolate laboratory.
Ideally, you have a higher education such as chemist, food engineer, food scientist, pharmacist, process technologist, or similar with a strong background in analytical chemistry in the food industry, preferably in the confectionery industry. A proven record in sensory analysis is a strong differentiator. We value your ability to combine theory with practical experience to understand fat chemistry and ingredient functions in chocolate.
