Your Responsibilities

• Lead and manage packaging development projects for multiple product categories (home, hygiene, germ protection).

• Act as Product Owner within cross‑functional Agile teams, fostering collaboration among R&D, Manufacturing, Quality, and Marketing.
• Partner with global suppliers and technology partners to identify and implement cutting‑edge materials and technologies.
• Ensure compliance with global packaging standards, quality, and regulatory requirements.
• Drive laboratory testing, line validation, and technical documentation for new packaging formats.
• Manage and develop a cross‑functional team of packaging engineers and specialists.
• Implement new technical systems and tools to enhance packaging efficiency and quality.
• Anticipate future packaging trends, materials, and innovations to support Reckitt’s strategic growth and environmental goals.

The Experience We're Looking For

• 5‑10 years of experience in packaging development within FMCG, beverage, or household product industries.
• Proven success in end‑to‑end project management and product industrialisation.
• Deep expertise in packaging materials and technologies (plastics, cartonboard, laminates, sustainable alternatives).
• Experience working in international and cross‑functional teams.
• English language skills.
• Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Design, Packaging Engineering, or related field.
• Knowledge of 3D CAD tools (e.g., SolidWorks) and/or graphic software (e.g., Adobe Photoshop) is an advantage.
