Because of strong and consistent growth, this well-known provider of cosmetics packaging and turnkey solutions is looking for several skilled Project Managers to expand their team. They are a well-recognized name in the beauty marketplace with decades of best-selling products on the market for their clients. Because of another record-breaking year of sales, we have been asked to identify professionals with 2-10+ years of experience helping customers bring their beauty product vision into reality. If you have done this and are a beauty projects junkie, passionate about creating new products for the market, this is a dream job.
Working closely with their sales team, these professionals guide projects from inception to completion, overseeing details and timelines. These are problem solvers, working to identify solutions and sourcing the right options for a client’s particular needs. Project managers at this firm often grow into other roles in time including in sales, procurement, and marketing. The sky is the limit when you have spent a few years honing your skills in this role as it exposes you to all the steps in the creation process and builds transferable skills for many other positions in the beauty industry. And many of their Project Managers love the role so much that they simply grow into senior roles in the same skill set.
Where else can you work on a mass market hair care product one day, a prestige color cosmetic for the world’s largest beauty company the next, then start work on a foot powder for a personal care brand, and finish the week bringing a pressed eye shadow to life for a beauty blogger? Those who love variety, autonomy, and the creativity required to be successful love this role that touches nearly every part of the company and interacts closely with clients.
