• Cross-functional Execution: Work closely with R&D, fragrance houses, manufacturers, packaging vendors, marketing, sales, and supply chain.
• Consumer & Market Intelligence: Track trends, competitors, consumer feedback, and whitespace opportunities to turn insights into winning products.
• Packaging & Experience: Drive packaging innovation, product aesthetics, functionality, and overall consumer experience.
• Commercial Ownership: Balance product quality, performance, cost, margins, scalability, and speed to market.
• Launch Excellence: Ensure products move seamlessly from concept and sampling to testing, production, and market launch.

Who we’re looking for:

• Experience in NPD, product innovation, or product management in fragrances, beauty, cosmetics, personal care, FMCG, or a related category.
• Strong understanding of product development processes, formulations, ingredients, packaging, and vendor management.
• A commercially driven mindset with an eye for consumer trends and differentiated product ideas.
• The ability to manage multiple projects, timelines, budgets, and stakeholders.
• Someone who can think creatively but execute with discipline.
