They are able to produce it in a variety of shapes and can customise the drug carrier to carry a range of ingredients, ranging from DNA to vitamins and proteins.

Due to the nature of the company, the role requires a hands-on, multiskilled team worker who enjoys new challenges and a fast-paced environment. There will be significant opportunities for development and growth as the team expands.
This is a dynamic role for an ambitious individual to widen their career prospects and gain experience working with an exciting and rapidly expanding company.
Experience
5+ years working in a supply chain environment and experience of Inventory Management Systems is something that would be required for the role.
