Global Head of Sustainable Products & Packaging -Circularity & Value Chain Transformation

Overview

Lead one of the defining transitions of the decade. We\'re looking for a leader who understands where circular systems are heading and wants the platform to shape what comes next.

This isn\'t a role focused on producing strategies alone. You\'ll help clients design pilots, prove commercial value, build infrastructure, unlock investment and scale solutions that work. You\'ll set the direction for a global practice, grow a significant business, and help some of the world\'s leading organisations turn circularity into a value system.

Anthesis is a platform to multiply your impact. We\'re looking for a builder — someone who\'s spent years deep in sustainable products and packaging — EPR, PPWR, eco-design, chemistry, reuse and refill — and is ready to build a global practice around it.

Responsibilities

• Inherit and manage a strong client portfolio and an experienced technical team; set the vision, grow the business, and position Anthesis as a leader in circularity space.


• Lead the development and execution of pilots, quantify ROI, and scale solutions that deliver measurable value for clients.


• Design and implement infrastructure, unlock investment, and accelerate adoption of circular solutions.


• Set the direction for a global practice and build a growing, high-impact practice that meets client needs.

Why This Role Exists

Sustainable products and packaging is one of the fastest-moving areas in the circular economy. EPR regimes are expanding and fragmenting across jurisdictions. Digital Product Passports are coming. Green claims rules are tightening. Brands are under pressure to rethink everything from design to end-of-life — faster than most can track on their own. But the real opportunity isn\'t compliance. It\'s for the early movers who innovate ahead of the rules and turn that into lasting competitive advantage.

What We Do

Our clients — global brands across consumer goods, retail, tech, beauty, food and beverage, pharma, and fashion — need different things at different moments. Sometimes a clear strategy; sometimes a partner who\'ll go all the way through to execution. We meet them where they are and increasingly combine deep sustainability expertise with AI, digital tools, and emerging technology to deliver faster and better.

Profile

We\'ve built strong foundations. Now we need the leader to take it further — someone who pairs real technical credibility with commercial instinct, a builder\'s mentality, and the drive to turn that into lasting value for clients.
