We are seeking a strategic Food Safety and Compliance Lead to manage our efforts across APAC countries.

Job Description

This senior role oversees the development and execution of food safety standards, compliance systems, and regulatory management across 6 markets, each with its own complexity. The ideal candidate will have experience in process improvement, project management, food safety or quality management, and a proven track record leading multi-country teams.

You will manage a team of direct reports, ensuring consistent execution, performance tracking, and a strong culture of compliance across the region. You will also act as the primary driver of food safety excellence, regulatory coordination, and audit programs, and serve as the key interface between local authorities, internal teams, and global stakeholders.

This is a hands-on yet strategic role that requires someone who can balance operational rigor with high-level leadership. If you're excited to shape the future of food safety across countries and lead regional initiatives that make a real impact, we'd love to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities
  1. Lead the food safety and compliance agenda across 6 countries, overseeing local execution through direct reports in each market.
  2. Build and maintain high standards for food safety, hygiene, and regulated product compliance (e.g., tobacco, pharmacy, alcohol).
  3. Develop and implement regional frameworks for HACCP, SOPs, food recall management, and issue resolution.
  4. Design and roll out internal audit programs, dashboards, and regional scorecards with clear KPIs and action plans.
  5. Coach and develop your country-level food safety managers, ensuring alignment with regional strategy and local execution.
  6. Be the senior point of contact for regulatory bodies, supporting high-level discussions and risk management.
  7. Ensure business continuity and food safety readiness across all countries, especially during incidents or crises.
Requirements
  • 6+ years of experience in process improvement, project management, food safety or quality management, ideally with regional oversight.
  • Proven track record leading multi-country teams and managing distributed direct reports.
  • Strong knowledge of food safety systems (HACCP, ISO 22000, GHP) and regulated product compliance.
  • Confident in managing stakeholders across operations, legal, and government agencies.
  • Analytical mindset, excellent communicator, and hands-on when needed.
  • Fluent in English; additional languages are a plus.
  • Willingness to travel across the region based on needs.
What We Offer

As a member of our team, you'll enjoy a collaborative international environment with high ownership and learning opportunities. You'll also have access to internal tools and learning platforms to support your growth.

This role offers a competitive package, benefits, and travel opportunities across APAC. Join us in shaping the future of quick commerce and food quality.
