  • Continuously assess internal policies and update them based on changes in legislation, environmental standards, and best practices.
  • Ensure that compliance obligations are reflected in the company's contractual framework, addressing risks related to product specifications and evolving regulatory requirements.
Risk Assessment, Auditing & Sustainability Monitoring
  • Lead internal audits and coordinate with external auditors to verify compliance with EU standards and sustainability goals.
  • Plan and manage product testing, certification, and documentation to ensure regulatory conformity and environmental responsibility.
  • Ensure compliance documentation (Certificates of Compliance, vendor certifications, and regulatory filings) is complete, up-to-date, and accessible for internal teams, suppliers, and retail partners.
  • Investigate compliance and sustainability breaches, recommend corrective actions, and ensure timely resolution.
Cross-Functional Coordination & Project Leadership
  • Act as a central point of coordination between Product, Legal, Supply Chain, and Sales to ensure compliance is actively managed across the business.
  • Support the commercial and operations teams in navigating compliance-related matters, including global and local regulations.
  • Drive alignment between internal teams and external partners, ensuring compliance requirements are clear at every stage of product development, production, and distribution.
Stakeholder Communication & Training
  • Provide guidance and training to internal teams (R&D, QC/QA, Supply Chain) on regulatory requirements, sustainability goals, and best practices.
  • Act as the key point of contact for regulatory bodies, industry groups, certification authorities, and sustainability organizations.
  • Collaborate with legal and environmental teams to interpret and apply regulatory and sustainability developments to company operations.
  • Support external communication with suppliers and vendors to ensure they meet compliance and sustainability obligations.
Monitoring & Future Regulatory & Sustainability Trends
  • Keep up-to-date with emerging global regulations affecting consumer products, including sustainability and digital compliance trends.
  • Advise leadership on strategic regulatory and sustainability shifts, ensuring future compliance readiness.
  • Advocate for best practices in environmental and ethical compliance, aligning with the EU Green Deal and Circular Economy Action Plan.
  • Lead initiatives to reduce the environmental impact of our products, including lifecycle assessments, sustainable sourcing, and eco-friendly packaging innovations.

  • A bachelor's degree or higher in Law, Engineering, Business, Regulatory Affairs, Environmental Science, or a related field.
  • Strong knowledge of EU and international consumer product laws, sustainability frameworks, and regulatory requirements.
  • Experience with CE marking, product safety documentation, sustainability certifications, and conformity assessments.
  • A strategic and analytical mindset, with the ability to translate business requirements to compliance and sustainability practices to various audiences.
  • Experience of cross-functional work, with the ability to communicate and train others in complex regulations and sustainability standards effectively.
  • Fluency in English; additional languages are a plus.

Why you should join POC

  • You will be able to define, drive and evolve the compliance and sustainability area, working hands-on with current regulation while being deeply embedded in the business.
  • The impact of your work will be tangible, moving fast from idea to execution to results.
  • We are a collaborative, passionate team, where Sustainability & Compliance needs to be closely connected to the entire business. You will work alongside skilled colleagues who are just as eager to share knowledge as they are to push boundaries.
  • While we take our work seriously, we believe in balance. Whether it's lunch rides, outdoor training sessions, or product testing, we embrace an active lifestyle. Plus, with a generous health allowance, insurance, and discounts on our award-winning products, you will experience POC's mission firsthand - protecting lives and enabling performance.
  • If you are looking for a place where your expertise makes a real impact, where Sustainability is both strategic and hands-on, and where you are never far from decision to action, this is the role for you.
