Fonterra is a proud New Zealand Co-operative built by generations of farming families. We believe nutritious food is essential to sustain people today, and for future generations to thrive, which is why we challenge ourselves to find new ways to bring our dairy goodness to people around the world.
Fonterra Research & Development Centre in Palmerston North is one of the largest dairy research facilities in the world and is home to 350 staff, including nutritionists, scientists, researchers and engineers. Fonterra offers excellent career paths in various disciplines and is keen to attract Māori talents into the dairy industry.
