About the Role

Orbia's Fluor & Energy Materials business is leading the global transition to next-generation refrigerants. This role is central to navigating the dynamic regulatory landscape affecting fluorochemicals.

  • Collaborate with Legal, Sustainability, Product Management, and Commercial teams.
  • Work with customs authorities to combat illegal trade.

What Makes You Stand Out

  • 10+ years in regulatory/government affairs in chemicals or environmental sectors.
  • Deep expertise in HFCs, HFOs, and global F-gas regulations.
  • Proven track record in policy influence and international regulatory frameworks.
  • Strong network with regulatory agencies and stakeholders.
  • Technical background in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Environmental Policy, or Law.
  • Willingness to travel up to 50% domestically and internationally.

Why Orbia

  • Direct impact on climate solutions.
  • Strategic influence reporting directly to the VP Refrigerants.
  • Global scope with policy shaping across continents.
  • Remote flexibility with a US-based work model.
  • A dynamic, evolving regulatory landscape.
