Diversity matters: We are building a brand that represents the people of the world. It’s what you do that counts, and we are always looking to expand perspectives and voices to shape our future.
Who we are: You might know us as the inventors of the bath bomb, but there’s more to this great-smelling, partly employee-owned, family-run company than pioneering cosmetics. We believe our business should put more back into the world than it takes and demonstrate that capitalism can be a force for good.
The Living Wage Foundation’s statement 'a hard day's work deserves a fair day's pay' is one that we are proud to commit to in the UK. As an accredited Living Wage employer, we put our people first and fight cruel practices like animal testing, promote regeneration, and show that it is what’s inside that counts - whether that’s an ingredient in a product, or the minerals in a smartphone.
Role overview: With support from team members, the Product Compliance Coordinator coordinates and oversees all the necessary administration required to sell a product (cosmetic or other) legally and safely in all our markets.
Team: The Regulatory Compliance Team ensures we can manufacture and sell our wide range of products worldwide, in compliance with local regulations, without compromising our ethics. The team works to mitigate risk and enact proactive solutions to regulatory issues in line with the wider ethics and goals of the business.
Please note: We may close this vacancy early if we receive an overwhelming response or our business requirements change.
