Contract Type

Description
Requirements
  • Bachelor’s degree required; advanced degree in public policy, international affairs, political science, law, or related fields preferred.
  • At least 8 years of relevant experience in East & Southern Africa in public or corporate affairs roles within multinational companies, public affairs firms, international organizations, or industry associations—ideally in the food, beverage, or packaging sectors.
  • Strong experience in public affairs, government affairs, sustainability, environment, food, and consumer health policy, with a proven ability to lead advocacy campaigns and work cross‑functionally with business leaders.
  • Demonstrated ability to develop and implement effective and practical public affairs strategies and plans that deliver results.


Responsibilities
  • Develop and lead the public affairs and government relations strategy and annual work plans for East & Southern Africa to influence the policy environment and position Tetra Pak as a partner and solution provider on issues critical to business continuity and growth. Key areas include environmental sustainability, circular economy (e.g., waste management, EPR, single‑use plastics), food (e.g., food loss and waste, sugar tax, school feeding programs), fiscal policies (tariffs, duties, forex restrictions), climate, and nature. Preventing punitive regulation is a core priority.
  • Proactively monitor policy and regulatory developments at regional, national, and state levels; identify emerging trends and issues; assess risks and opportunities; and propose response strategies.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with key policy stakeholders, industry peers, NGOs, and influencers. Ensure active representation in relevant industry associations and networks, and organize strategic engagements for the Managing Director and senior leadership.
  • Lead advocacy campaigns and external positioning with government bodies and policy stakeholders; identify platforms and opportunities for thought leadership.
  • Operate with clear, measurable objectives aligned with Corporate Affairs and country leadership.
  • Strengthen internal capabilities related to regulatory affairs and public policy advocacy; secure appropriate external support and manage external partners and consultancy firms.
  • Monitor the policy landscape across uncovered countries in the region and initiate escalation or engagement plans when required.
