[Hiring] Compliance & Sustainability Intelligence Manager @rePurpose Global

Role Description

rePurpose Global helps consumer brands meet their Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) obligations for packaging across a fast-growing set of U.S. and Canadian jurisdictions. As a Compliance & Sustainability Intelligence Manager, you'll own the outward-facing side of that work:

• Tracking regulatory change as it happens.
• Educating customers and prospects.
• Translating dense statutory and program requirements into actionable guidance.

This position carries the broadest go-to-market workload on the team, with a primary focus on the U.S. regulatory landscape. It's a highly visible role — you'll be one of the main faces of rePurpose Global's regulatory and compliance expertise to the market.

A defining part of the job is our webinar program, which you'll own end to end:

• Shaping the topic and narrative.
• Building the content.
• Presenting live to audiences of producers.
• Fielding technical and regulatory questions.

Between webinars, you'll:

• Answer customer and prospect questions.
• Produce written regulatory intelligence and market education.
• Equip sales and customer teams with necessary materials.

This position is remote, but we prefer candidates located in New York or on the East Coast.

Key Responsibilities

• Track U.S. regulatory change and turn it into intelligence.
• Monitor enacted and emerging state programs, their reporting cycles, rulemaking activity, PRO program plans, administrative guidance, and enforcement timelines.
• Be a trusted first point of contact for regulatory questions.
• Field customer and prospect questions on EPR obligations, fees, reporting categories, exemptions, and deadlines.
• Own the webinar & thought leadership program.
• Create education and enablement content.
• Carry the market presence.
• Close the loop with the technical and product teams.

Qualifications

• A background in EPR, packaging or environmental policy, sustainability, regulatory affairs, or a related field.
• Experience in plastics and packaging policy, circular economy, waste management, or Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR).
• Ability to independently read, interpret, and track statutory and program text across multiple jurisdictions.
• Exceptional communication and presentation skills.
• Confidence in engaging producers, prospects, regulators, and industry groups.
• The ability to stay organized and credible in a fast-moving regulatory environment.
• A track record of owning a domain end-to-end with minimal oversight.

Requirements

• Brand- or producer-side experience.
• Participation in advisory committees, working groups, trade associations, or industry coalitions.
• A history of creating content or educational programming for a technical or regulatory audience.
• Familiarity with recycled-content mandates, labeling laws, or other circular-economy rules.
• Direct exposure to eco-modulation fee models, design-for-recyclability guidelines, or state-level rulemaking comment periods.

Benefits

• Competitive salary package based on skills and experience ($75,000 - $115,000).
• Access to medical coverage, wellness fund, learning opportunities, and WeWork partnerships.
• Flexible salary range customized based on qualifications.
