  • Set rigorous KPIs across EHS, OEE, energy consumption, and inventory turnover.
  • Oversee complex manufacturing assets with multiple product changeovers, batch production, and stringent impurity/safety profiles.
Regulatory, Quality & Compliance
  • Ensure absolute adherence to global regulatory standards (e.g., REACH, FDA, GMP, ISO, GHS, EPA, CLP) across all operations and product categories.
  • Direct regulatory submissions, audits, and responses, including pre-market registration, dossier compilation, and compliance assurance.
  • Institute enterprise-wide quality systems, audit trails, document controls, and deviation management protocols.
Financial & Business Management
  • Own the full P&L with accountability for EBITDA growth, working capital efficiency, and capital budgeting.
  • Build and model financial scenarios for new market entry, facility expansion, or major R&D investments.
  • Work closely with owners, private equity, or family stakeholders to report performance, manage risk, and ensure value creation.
Organizational & Cultural Leadership
  • Lead and scale a multidisciplinary organization spanning chemists, process engineers, regulatory experts, commercial managers, and operations leaders.
  • Drive cultural alignment across innovation, compliance, performance, and continuous learning.
  • Establish succession planning, leadership development, and global hiring frameworks to support expansion.
Qualifications
