The role

We are looking for a proactive and resourceful Food Contact Materials (FCM) expert to join our team. This is a permanent position based in Vallila, Helsinki. If you have expertise in FCMs and enjoy working at the intersection of science, regulation, and customer service, we’d love to hear from you.

In this role, you’ll support clients in navigating the regulatory landscape of food contact materials by coordinating laboratory testing aligned with applicable laws and regulations. You’ll act as the key link between our clients, who need testing services, and our partner laboratories, who conduct the tests.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Identifying required tests based on client needs and legal requirements

• Preparing and delivering offers to our customers together with our sales team

• Coordinating sample submissions to partner labs

• Reporting results to clients and providing technical consultation

• Supporting clients through every step of the compliance process

You’ll primarily work on compliance projects related to plastic, paper, and board food contact materials. To succeed, you’ll need to be (or become) well-versed in the regulatory framework and testing protocols relevant to FCMs.

Working with our clients will be an essential part of the role, so you need to enjoy being in customer contact. While you don’t need to be a sales expert, you should have a sales mentality and feel comfortable performing technical sales. 

Experience with FCM compliance testing is a significant advantage, but not a strict requirement. We’re happy to provide training if you bring the right foundational skills and attitude..

We are a growth company, so we hope you are equipped with an open-minded attitude and a drive to impact how we bring our business to the next level. We will give you lots of freedom and possibilities to influence your work. We expect your full-time presence at our Vallila office during the first months, after which you can start working with a hybrid model, if you wish.
