Responsibilities

• Launch Orchestration (The "Project Lead") End-to-End Project Management: Serve as the central project manager for all innovation and renovation projects. Own the timeline from "Product Lock" to "On-Shelf," ensuring no slippage in critical path milestones.
• Cross-Functional Alignment: Act as the primary connector between the Hub and the Division/Global Supply Chain, R&D, and Legal teams, translating commercial needs into operational actions.
• Process Guardianship: Act as the expert on the "Gateway Process" (the stage-gate innovation process), ensuring all stakeholders adhere to the discipline required for a successful launch.
• Creative Asset & Packaging Delivery Artwork (AW) Execution: Manage the end-to-end packaging and artwork workflows, ensuring regulatory compliance, managing translations, and securing timely release of assets to trade partners.
• GTM Toolkit Execution: Ensure the "Tools" (trade presenters, samples, e-content assets) are physically produced and available for the sales teams.
• Technical Commercialization Mastery The "SKU Architect": Own the technical backbone of the brand. You are responsible for SKU creation, country pairings (determining which markets get which packs), and volume consolidation.
• Complexity Management: Manage the simplification agenda by identifying low-performing SKUs for delisting and ensuring the portfolio remains efficient and profitable.

Requirements

• Operational Discipline: Execution Excellence mindset with an obsession for timelines, critical paths, and details.
• Agility & Project Leadership: Ability to manage multiple complex projects simultaneously (e.g., major NPD launches alongside packaging renovations) and lead cross-functional teams without direct authority.
• Commercial Architecture Mastery: Deep, practical expertise in SKU logic, technical commercialization, and understanding exactly how a product physically reaches the market in multi-market clusters.
• Collaborative Influence: Proven ability to drive progress across key support teams (Supply Chain, Regulatory, Legal) through influence rather than direct reporting authority.
