## About the role

Osmo is seeking a Director of Fragrance Evaluation to lead our evaluation function and define how scent is selected, communicated, and brought to market. This is a client-facing seat: you're in the room reading the client's priorities, telling the story, and closing — structurally B2B, but conviction-selling in practice, the way a strong B2C brand sells.

## What they're looking for

- 12+ years of experience in fragrance evaluation, with strong expertise in fine fragrance and meaningful experience in personal/home care and candles
- US-based, able to work on-site in Elizabeth, NJ — non-negotiable, no exceptions for international candidates
- Proven, demonstrated coaching and team-building — real mentorship, PIPs where warranted, and empathetic leadership, since fragrance evaluators are emotionally invested people and that leadership style is the linchpin of the role
- Track record building trust with perfumers specifically, not only with an evaluation team
- Strong olfactive acuity with the ability to confidently guide scent direction and selection
- Comfort working cross-functionally with perfumers, commercial teams, and marketing
