We’re seeking a Senior Manager – Sustainability (Water) to guide and grow our water stewardship, nature strategy, and beyond-value-chain mitigation work across our markets. This is a high impact role at a pivotal time, ideal for someone who blends technical sustainability expertise with strategic thinking, partnership-building, and a desire to create measurable change.

• Shape and deliver a long term water replenishment and nature positive strategy, prioritising high risk locations across Europe and APS.
• Provide subject matter expertise and thought leadership, partnering closely with colleagues across QESH, Supply Chain, Procurement, our Business Units and TCCC.
• Manage and evaluate a portfolio of water replenishment and nature projects, supporting markets with planning, funding and delivery.
• Track, assure, and report water- and nature related performance data for internal and external disclosure (e.g., Integrated Report, CDP).
• Build internal capability through education and engagement on CCEP’s water and nature strategies.
• Represent CCEP externally with global partners and networks such as WWF, The Nature Conservancy, Alliance for Water Stewardship, CEO Water Mandate, and others.
• Support supplier engagement programmes and regenerative agriculture partnerships that deliver water, climate and nature benefits.
• Chair the Climate and Water Resilience Group, helping markets identify risks and develop climate adaptation plans.

This is a highly collaborative role with a combination of strategic responsibility, technical insight, and hands on programme leadership.

• Experience in corporate sustainability reporting and disclosure.
• Skilled in managing and interpreting large datasets using digital tools.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English; additional European languages are a plus.
