Osmo The Regulatory Compliance Technical Manager at Osmo leads the interpretation and implementation of global regulatory requirements for fragrance ingredients and products. This role advises cross-functional teams on regulatory risk and drives compliance with IFRA standards.

Responsibilities

Osmo is seeking an experienced regulatory professional to own the interpretation and implementation of regulatory requirements for fragrance ingredients and fragrance oils across global markets. This role operates with significant independence, resolving complex and novel compliance questions and advising cross-functional teams on regulatory risk before it becomes a blocker.
Interpret and implement regulatory requirements for fragrance ingredients and finished products across global markets (EU, US, UK, and key APAC/LATAM jurisdictions), spanning IFRA, REACH, EU Cosmetic Regulation, and FDA/MoCRA, and other applicable frameworks — exercising independent judgment on ambiguous or novel questions
Drive compliance with IFRA standards, determining when and how formulations must change ahead of restrictions and amendments — not just in response to them
Lead regulatory database and documentation strategy, setting the standards for accuracy and structure that others follow
Support Perfumery, Procurement, Quality, Manufacturing, and Commercial as the regulatory authority in product development decisions
Conduct regulatory risk assessments on raw materials, formulations, and finished products, surfacing compliance issues proactively
Support the Product Stewardship & Regulatory lead for customer-facing compliance inquiries, including judgment calls on what documentation satisfies customer-specific requirements
Track emerging global regulatory trends and translate them into concrete business recommendations ahead of formal rule changes

Qualification

Bachelor's degree in ChemistryStrong communication skillsWays to Stand Out

Required

Bachelor's degree in Chemistry, Biology, Regulatory Affairs, Toxicology, or a related field with 8+ years in regulatory affairs, within the fragrance industry (fragrance experience required)
Demonstrated global/multi-market regulatory experience — you have owned compliance across more than one major jurisdiction (e.g., EU and US), not a single home market (global experience required)
Deep working knowledge of IFRA standards, REACH, EU Cosmetic Regulation (1223/2009), and other relevant global regulations — with the judgment to apply them where clear precedent doesn't exist
Strong communication skills, with a demonstrated ability to advise cross-functional stakeholders and influence decisions on regulatory risk
Familiarity with fragrance formulation and raw materials
Ways to Stand Out:
Experience building or restructuring a regulatory function, not just operating within one
Experience acting as regulatory advisor during due diligence or audits
