📋 Description • Serve as the single-point regulatory strategist and decision-maker for the iconic Burt’s Bees portfolio, translating global beauty regulations into clear, business-building actions that accelerate speed-to-market while protecting brand equity and consumer trust. • Independently craft and execute end-to-end regulatory strategies for cosmetics, personal-care, and OTC drug products across the entire product lifecycle—from early-stage concept to post-launch maintenance—ensuring every formula, claim, label, and marketing asset meets or exceeds FDA, MOCRA, EU, Health Canada, and key Asian requirements. • Lead cross-functional project teams (R&D, Legal, Corporate Quality, Marketing, Government Affairs) as the authoritative PS&RA voice, distilling complex scientific and legal language into concise, actionable guidance that enables innovation, margin expansion, and risk mitigation. • Own and continuously improve the regulatory dossier for each product: conduct rigorous ingredient assessments, formula reviews, safety substantiation, claims validation, artwork/label approvals, and digital copy reviews; maintain pristine documentation within the Regulatory Information Management System for seamless audits and inspections. • Drive regulatory horizon scanning—monitor emerging legislation, state reporting mandates (e.g., California Safe Cosmetics SB 312, CDER, Cosmetics Direct), and international policy shifts—then translate insights into proactive strategies that future-proof the portfolio and create competitive advantage. • Identify, quantify, and neutralize regulatory risks before they become business disruptions; present scenario-based mitigation plans to senior leadership and influence go/no-go decisions with data-driven confidence. • Represent Clorox and Burt’s Bees externally in trade associations, coalitions, and regulatory working groups; build trusted relationships with FDA, Health Canada, and other agencies to shape policy and champion science-based standards that align with natural-product values. • Mentor and upskill junior regulatory scientists, codify best practices, and create scalable playbooks that embed regulatory excellence across the organization, multiplying your impact beyond individual projects. • Translate sustainability and clean-beauty ambitions into compliant product design; partner with R&D to ensure botanical, natural, and organic ingredients meet ISO 16128 and evolving eco-label criteria without compromising safety or performance. • Champion inclusive, values-based collaboration in a fully remote environment—leveraging digital tools to maintain high-touch communication, foster psychological safety, and ensure every teammate can contribute their best ideas regardless of geography. • Deliver measurable business outcomes: faster launch timelines, reduced regulatory-related delays, stronger consumer trust metrics, and expanded market access—all while upholding Clorox’s commitment to do the right thing for people, planet, and communities.
