The posting

Blueland is reimagining everyday cleaning essentials with safe, products that are free from single-use plastic and eliminate the need to choose between what’s safe for your family, good for the planet, and proven to work. With 45 patents granted & 39 patents pending worldwide, Blueland’s innovative products have diverted over 1 billion single-use plastic bottles from landfills and oceans and 7.5 million pounds of CO2 from the atmosphere since 2019. While traditional cleaners are packaged in plastic and may contain up to 95% water, all Blueland products utilize tablet or powder formats, designed to be used directly or mixed with household tap water, and come in compostable or recyclable packaging. From the kitchen sink to the laundry room, we create products families can trust and afford to use over and over (and over) again. Available on Blueland.com and nationwide at Target, Costco, Whole Foods and select local retailers.

In a world where half of the planet’s carbon emissions come from just 36 companies, we believe that business should be a force for good and that mission and profit are not mutually exclusive—in fact, we’re proof of it. We’re committed to holding ourselves to the highest parental and environmental standards—which includes ongoing and unbiased certifications from trusted third-party organizations like Cradle to Cradle, EPA Safer Choice, USDA BioPreferred, Leaping Bunny, and EWG Verified. We’re also a Certified Climate Neutral business and certified B Corp “Best for the World.”

Blueland was featured on the Season 11 premiere of Shark Tank and successfully secured an investment. We’re also well-funded by top tier venture capital firms as well as notable investors including Gwyneth Paltrow, Justin Timberlake and founders of Sweetgreen, Thrive Market, Honest Company, Rent the Runway, and Bonobos. Our products have been featured across top tier outlets including the New York Times, Fast Company, TechCrunch, VOGUE, Wall Street Journal, Inc., and more.

  • Partner with R&D, Operations, Quality, Marketing, Creative, and external manufacturing partners to translate product and business requirements into technically robust, scalable packaging solutions.
  • Influence cross-functional decision-making by clearly communicating technical and commercial tradeoffs and balancing sustainability, cost, quality, speed, aesthetics, consumer experience, manufacturability, and supply continuity.
  • Develop and maintain Blueland’s packaging technical standards and specifications, including component specifications, drawings, BOM requirements, test protocols, qualification reports, pallet configurations, and packaging acceptance criteria.
  • Own the strategic sourcing and procurement strategy for Blueland’s packaging portfolio, including supplier identification, competitive sourcing, negotiations, supplier selection, contracting, and ongoing commercial management.
  • Develop and manage the packaging supplier network to ensure competitive cost, technical capability, capacity, quality, sustainability, service, and supply continuity as Blueland grows.

  • Build a multi-year pipeline of cost savings and value-engineering initiatives across materials, component designs, specifications, suppliers, case packs, pallet configurations, and distribution systems.

  • Strong commercial and analytical capabilities, with demonstrated experience in supplier negotiations, competitive sourcing, cost modeling, value engineering, supplier management, and delivering measurable cost savings.
  • Experience developing and sourcing packaging within home care, personal care, beauty, food & beverage, or other consumer products, particularly powders, tablets, or concentrated liquid products.
  • Experience sourcing and developing glass, flexible packaging, fiber-based packaging, corrugated, closures/dispensing systems, printing and decoration, and sustainable alternatives to conventional packaging.
  • Experience managing packaging across DTC, Amazon/e-commerce, mass retail, and club channels, including global sourcing, retailer-specific requirements, palletization, and packaging supply-chain optimization.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
