The Senior Packaging Project Manager position with Corugami is a full-time opportunity for experienced professionals passionate about innovation in packaging.

Salaries and compensation details are not publicly listed, but the role promises seniority, autonomy, and the chance to manage high-impact projects for enterprise clients.

The ideal candidate has at least 5 years in packaging development, with a background preferably tied to FMCG, and relevant academic credentials from a technical or packaging institute.

What You’ll Be Doing Daily

Lead significant innovation initiatives by auditing client packaging, identifying and implementing upgrades, and ensuring value engineering at every step.

Manage the full project cycle, from scoping technical requirements and timelines to supervising the onsite team through to the final implementation.

Present business cases and technical recommendations to brand and procurement leadership, advocating for investments in new designs or technologies.

Ensure all packaging is compliant with regulatory and safety standards and take responsibility for the quality delivered to clients.

Mentor junior engineers and associates, fostering a culture of excellence and continuous improvement within the team.

Why This Job Stands Out

You get a chance to truly innovate, not just maintain; your ideas for category-defining packaging can move from concept to reality quickly.

The position offers exposure to both high-level strategy and ground-level implementation, making every day varied and rewarding.

Some Possible Downsides

This is a challenging role—expect long hours ensuring projects stay on track, often managing multiple priorities simultaneously.

Stakeholder management can be complex, requiring careful negotiation between technical feasibility and commercial expectations.

Final Thoughts: Is This Job for You?

If you are driven, technically sharp, and motivated by the desire to see your innovations out in the market, this role aligns perfectly with your ambitions.

Apply if you are ready for responsibility, real impact, and a fast-paced environment where your work is both seen and valued.
