You will report directly to the Regulatory Affairs Manager within the Scientific Affairs team, and will work closely with the R&D, Scientific Affairs, and Sustainability teams.

Key responsibilities

• Regulatory monitoring: help track regulatory developments (EU, US and state-level, Canada and province-level) to ensure our ingredients, packaging, and finished products comply with current regulations, including regulations and recommendations related to sustainability topics (EPR, eco-design, etc.), and flag to the team any changes likely to impact our formulas.

• Product database updates: keep our database up to date with the latest regulatory data (compositions, ingredient statuses, labeling), as well as actively monitor the certification status of our raw materials (Cosmos and other relevant standards), regularly checking compliance with suppliers and updating the database accordingly. This database serves as a cross-functional foundation that feeds into numerous strategic projects, such as B Corp certification or EPR declarations.

• Development and tracking of regulatory and scientific KPIs: contribute to defining and tracking key performance indicators (KPIs) relevant to our regulatory activities and certifications (B Corp, Cosmos, EPR, etc.) to give the team a clear view of our compliance level, as well as to identify opportunities for improvement and engagement.

Prose Values

Intentional Inclusivity

• We know the best ideas come from open minds and willingness to listen. While our products cater to the individual, an invitation into our process is always open to our community.

• We value our differences and diverse backgrounds by communicating openly, managing with transparency and striving to understand one another’s perspective. It’s a key ingredient to our innovation.

Connected Collaboration

• Our strength as a group will outlast our efforts as individual contributors. With offices across countries, staying inventive and agile deepens our clear vision and consistent communication.

• We stay in a spirit of entrepreneurial collaboration: We do not have consensus at all times, but we trust one another to work toward our common goals. Our success is an expression and result of our progressive and gratifying teamwork.

Driven, Together

• We value ownership and coaching that encourages employees to think constructively and creatively about the business. We view employees as leaders and individuals who are accountable, resourceful and responsible. Anyone and everyone is encouraged to lead.

• We recognize that in order to continue thinking one step ahead, we will need to try new things. We strive to provide an open environment that accepts this truth, making space for new ideas to emerge.

Humanity Always

• We assume good intentions in every interaction, keeping ourselves accountable for the climate we create. We seek to understand our co-workers through this lens of conscious benevolence, authenticity and fellowship.

• We operate with the intention of preserving resources, creating an environment we can all live in – for our business and the world. Sustainable care is essential to our ethos as an organization. We take a mindful approach to how we think about our people (employees) and our planet.
