**What are we looking for?**
- Minimum 5 years of proven experience in government and regulatory affairs work, preferably with experience from another FMCG company, a political or public institution and/or in consultancy and in-house roles.
- In depth knowledge of political & institutional Portuguese and European ecosystem.
- Direct experience in dealing with high ranking government and trade officials on controversial and complex issues.
