Policy Development: Collaborate with teams in the Far East to enhance our robust policies and procedures, ensuring compliance and ethical practices are embedded in our operations.
Quality Assurance: Uphold quality through rigorous factory processes and audits that align with our specific customer standards and expectations.
Technical Expertise: Serve as the go-to resource for the latest sustainability technologies and techniques, fostering innovation in sustainability practices.
Environmental and Ethical Management: Oversee compliance with established environmental and ethical practices, aligning with frameworks such as HIGG, EUDR, SMETA, and other customer-specific action plans.
Customer Engagement: Facilitate customer meetings as the technical expert, demonstrating your knowledge and providing effective solutions that reflect our commitment to quality and compliance.
Internal Training and Development: Design and deliver training programmes to enhance awareness of sustainability and compliance practices throughout the organisation.
