  • Maintain accurate product Weights & Dimensions to support Sales, Operations, and Logistics teams. 
    • Factory & Vendor Support 
  • Coordinate with vendors and Operations to request and manage samples, including PPS and licensor submission samples. 
  • Centralize and manage packaging tracking and proofing processes with vendors. 
  • Photograph and video packaging samples to support rapid licensor submissions. 
  • Communicate directly with factories regarding graphics running changes and packaging updates. 
  • Conduct China-based press checks and provide GS sign-off when US-based teams are unable to review. 
    • Systems, Documentation & Compliance 
  • Complete Arena system work, including PNRs, ECRs, and approval of SKU BOMs. 
  • Ensure packaging is complete, released, and correctly reflected in Arena and NAV prior to production. 
  • Ensure the correct revision of packaging components is being produced. 
  • Assist the Documentation Control team with packaging data management as needed. 
  • Collaborate with Packaging Graphics on part numbers, How2Recycle approvals, licensing approvals, and file uploads to Arena. 
  • Manage and submit How2Recycle documentation. 
  • Bachelor’s degree in Packaging Engineering, Printing, Project Management, or related field (or equivalent experience).

  • Excellent problem-solving skills with the ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment with frequently shifting priorities.
