Regulatory Projects Advisor

An opportunity to join a fast-growing field of industry with critical linkage to new product development and ongoing operations. This area has shifted from a purely behind-the-scenes world of compliance to a complex and challenging business-critical organisation that helps drive strategy.

• Provide clear and effective communication to internal stakeholders (e.g. Sales, Procurement, Business Growth & Technology, Manufacturing, Law, etc) on our compliance obligations, project status and risks and the impact of emerging regulatory developments on our products
• Support our affiliates, manufacturing sites and toll processors during enforcement inspections by local regulatory agencies and meeting any obligations arising
• What skills will you gain from this role?
• You will gain valuable experience in the growing area of global chemical regulations and their compliance implementation, by supporting the range of businesses.
• The role will provide a good understanding of how external regulatory factors can affect the competitiveness of our commercial operations.

• Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent) in chemistry or a relevant life-sciences related discipline
• Excellent problem-solving skills and good judgement in interpreting complex situations
• Ability to communicate and influence effectively, including experience of presenting and justifying recommendations to stakeholders
• EU REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of chemicals) experience, ideally including dossier preparation and submission, finding solutions to complex problems and interactions with ECHA and the Member State authorities.
• Preferably experience of other new and existing global Regulations (e.g. Korea REACH, Turkey REACH, TSCA, China, Eurasia, etc)
• Experience of other Regulations (e.g. biocides, agrichemicals, etc) would be favourable
