• Support consumer research to design packaging that truly resonates.
• Maintain precise data for regulatory and business needs.

What We’re Looking For

• A degree in Packaging Technology, Engineering, or a related field.
• Knowledge of packaging materials such as plastics, paper, glass, and metal.
• Experience in project management and an understanding of food packaging safety.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to work in diverse, multicultural teams.
• A proactive, solution-oriented mindset with attention to detail.
• Fluent in English; occasional travel may be required.

What’s In It for You?

• Be part of a collaborative, innovative team that values sustainability and consumer experience.
• Work on high-impact projects that shape the future of packaging in Europe.
