A Little More About Your Role…
The Chemical Compliance team is made up of professional scientists and experts on chemical and related regulations. WSP’s team is predominantly UK based and works with other WSP groups around the world to deliver projects in other countries.
Most projects are based around securing chemical registrations for WSP’s clients in the UK, EU, or internationally. Projects are mostly desk based, however travel may be required for some projects to support client meetings, negotiations, site audits or training sessions.
WSP’s clients are truly international and span the breadth of the chemical and technology industries. The team currently works for healthcare companies, specialty chemical manufacturers, cosmetics manufacturers, and machine and automotive manufacturers. This diversity in client base often requires diversity in delivery solutions, whether that be by achieving compliance through supply chain management, or the use of alternative testing methods, such as NAMs and QSAR, to meet the requirements of the REACH regulation.
This role will report to the Chemical Compliance Technical Director.
This is an ideal role for an experienced professional who is technically and commercially minded to develop their professional career towards a senior leadership position.
The Chemical Compliance team has grown significantly over the past 12 months and continues to do so as chemical regulations continue to develop, in particular UK REACH and EU REACH 2.0.

• Delivering excellent project management to meet client expectations.
• Highly skilled in delivering technical work on projects within the core business (chemical regulation) and appropriate areas of specialisation.
• Keeping up-to-date with latest regulatory developments in order to maintain high level of service to client and identify potential areas of growth for the WSP Product Stewardship team.

What We Will Be Looking For You To Demonstrate…

• Experience in chemical regulation with a degree in toxicology, chemistry, life sciences, or an environmental science.
• Applied knowledge of UK and EU chemical regulations, in particular REACH, CLP and BPR. Relevant experience in international chemical legislation and / or downstream chemical regulations, such as food contact, RoHS, WEEE, etc. would be desirable.
• Experience as a study monitor for all REACH Annex testing packages. Additional experience in the use of read-across, QSAR or NAMs would be desirable.
• Significant experience in a professional business environment (this could be governmental, industry, or consultancy) as part of a team working in chemical regulation.
• Strong commercial understanding and client relationship / management skills.
• Communication skills commensurate with interacting with different levels within client organisations (technical, management, etc.) either directly as part of technical project delivery or at conferences, webinars and other events.
• Competence in standard software packages, particularly Microsoft Excel, Word and PowerPoint, plus those specific to chemical regulations (IUCLID, CHESAR, QSAR.)
