Sustainability and Compliance Manager
Vantage Recruitment
Are you a Sustainability & Compliance Manager who enjoys getting under the skin of legislation, understanding what it means for a business and making sure the right processes are put in place?
This is a newly created opportunity for a hands-on Sustainability & Compliance Manager to take ownership of a growing compliance and sustainability remit within a successful international product-based business. Predominantly supporting print equipment, consumables and associated products, you will strengthen product compliance, supplier standards and sustainability across the business.
This is not a role for someone who wants to sit back and write strategy. As Sustainability & Compliance Manager, you will get involved, work across departments, keep ahead of changing legislation and turn complex requirements into practical actions.

- Monitor UK and EU legislation and identify what changes mean for the business.
- Build and improve product compliance processes.
- Support CE/UKCA, product safety, REACH and chemical compliance.
- Strengthen packaging compliance, EPR and supplier documentation.
- Improve product traceability and technical files.
- Work with international suppliers to obtain and maintain compliance information.
- Support emerging regulations including DPP, ESPR and PPWR.
- Develop measurable sustainability goals and support carbon reporting.
- Improve ESG information and customer sustainability responses.
- Lead cross-functional compliance and sustainability projects.
- Around 5–7 years’ experience in compliance, sustainability or regulatory affairs.
- Experience within manufacturing, consumer products, engineering, equipment or another product-led environment.
- Strong knowledge of UK and EU product compliance.
- Experience interpreting legislation and turning it into workable processes.
- Experience working with international suppliers and supply chains.
- Strong project management and stakeholder management skills.
- A practical, hands-on approach with excellent attention to detail.
