Production Director, Enifer

FULL TIME

September 2, 2024

Enifer, a spin-off company from VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland, was founded by five scientists in 2020 to develop and commercialize the proprietary PEKILO® technology further. A process originally developed and used by the Finnish forest industry at a commercial scale, the PEKILO® technology enables the biotechnological conversion of dilute side streams into a high-protein ingredient, PEKILO® mycoprotein. By transforming circular economy by-products into sustainable, planet-friendly protein, we are pioneering a new approach to food systems—one that supports healthy, delicious diets for everyone while minimizing environmental impact.We’re on a mission to make planet friendly protein accessible throughout the food chain.?Now we are gearing up the production of PEKILO® mycoprotein with a new €33M factory located in Kirkkonummi, Finland. With already existing collaborations with the world’s leading food and feed companies, we are prepared to annually upcycle food industry side streams into up to 3,000 tons of sustainable fungi-based protein. The plant will be the world’s first commercial plant to produce such a mycoprotein ingredient from sidestream raw materials. Would you like to be our new Production Director?
