James Slater

James has been in food science roles for over 20 years and has an educational background in biochemistry and biology.

His fascination and curiosity in the blend of craft and science in bakery led him to an R&D role at Puratos and he’s now an expert in ingredients and how they work, sensory science and food manufacturing processes.

At Puratos UK one of his focuses is the technical and biological function of fibre – a simple ingredient that can do so much good for mind, body and soul.
