- Experience and comfort working in fast-paced, research-driven environments where daily delivery of regulatory analyses is the norm
- An excellent working knowledge of the food chemical regulatory process (and in particular, the FDA and EPA); capable of delivering expert insights to our knowledgeable subscribers
- Experience presenting on regulatory topics to a variety of different audience types (small groups, large groups) in different environments (virtual and in-person)
