This role is pivotal in providing legal support for a wide range of environmental, health, and safety, sustainability, and product stewardship matters. The successful candidate will be responsible for ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements related to waste management, release reporting, pollution control, environmental remediation, and various other EHS and product stewardship issues.
