Strengthen Customer and Commercial Alignment:

• Partner closely with Account Management and Customer Success teams to identify and address customer risk earlier in the lifecycle.
• Establish stronger communication channels between delivery and commercial teams to proactively manage customer expectations and mitigate renewal risks.
• Participate in strategic customer discussions, onboarding activities, and service planning initiatives when appropriate.
• Collaborate with Sales, Product, Pricing, and Delivery stakeholders to support growth, retention, and service innovation.

Build High-Performing Teams:

• Lead, coach, and develop a team of Authoring Project Managers and operational leaders across a globally distributed organization.
• Foster a culture of accountability, collaboration, inclusivity, and continuous improvement.
• Empower leaders to make decisions, solve problems, and drive results while maintaining alignment to organizational objectives.
• Create an environment where teams actively identify friction points, surface ideas, and contribute to operational improvements.

Drive Business Performance:

• Contribute to budgeting, forecasting, cost management, and profitability initiatives.
• Use operational and financial data to optimize resource allocation and improve business outcomes.
• Develop KPIs that connect service performance, customer experience, operational efficiency, and commercial results.

What Makes You a Great Fit:

• Bachelor's degree in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Biotechnical Science, or a related field.
• 8+ years of experience in SDS authoring, chemical regulatory consulting, product stewardship, or a related field, including 7+ years of leadership experience managing global teams and developing people leaders.
• Strong knowledge of global regulatory frameworks, including GHS, OSHA, ADR, DOT, IATA, and IMDG.
• Experience leading global SDS authoring operations, including managing high-volume workloads, balancing resource capacity and customer demand, and delivering services across multiple regions.

• Demonstrated success leading operational improvements, organizational change, and large-scale regulatory or customer-driven projects.
• Proven ability to use data and metrics to identify trends, solve problems, improve performance, and drive business decisions.
