Job description

Position : Creative Chef – Product Innovation & R&D

Location : Vadodara, Gujarat (On-site only)

Company : Jagdish Farshan Pvt. Ltd.

About Us :

At Jagdish Farshan, food is more than a product — it’s a legacy. Since 1938, we’ve been bringing smiles to millions with our namkeens, mithai, snacks, and savory bites. Today, with 20+ outlets, exports to 23 countries, and a fast-growing D2C presence, we’re ready to push the boundaries of tradition — with bold new ideas, fusion flavors, and irresistible innovations.

What We’re Looking For :

A creative, hands-on Chef with a flair for flavor and an eye for innovation. You’ll be the mind (and taste buds!) behind new-age products — from reinventing mithai to crafting next-gen fusion snacks.

This role goes beyond cooking — it’s about leading the full R&D lifecycle : from concept to kitchen to shelf. You’ll create, test, standardize, launch, and scale — all while building and mentoring a culinary team that can replicate your vision across our outlets.

What You’ll Do :

  • Dream up new products across namkeens, mithai, fusion snacks & bakery
  • Experiment, taste-test, refine, and perfect your creations
  • Standardize recipes & processes with clear SOPs for consistency
  • Collaborate with production, packaging, and retail teams for launches
  • Build and lead a kitchen innovation team to roll out products at scale
  • Stay ahead of market trends and ensure every bite is on point with customer tastes

Who You Are :

  • A chef with strong experience in Indian sweets, namkeens, or modern / fusion snacks
  • Passionate about experimenting and pushing creative boundaries
  • Strong in execution — balancing creativity with commercial practicality
  • Able to develop & document processes for replication across locations
  • Leadership experience or ambition to build and manage a team
  • Culinary degree / diploma is a plus — but great taste and great ideas matter most
  • What You’ll Get :

  • A platform to innovate at one of Gujarat’s most iconic food brands
  • The chance to shape product lines enjoyed by thousands every day
  • An on-site, hands-on role with full creative freedom
  • Competitive pay + a collaborative and fast-moving work culture
  • This is a full-time, on-site role in Vadodara

    Only candidates based in Vadodara or willing to relocate will be considered
