How to Apply for Regulatory Solutions Advisor
at 3E
🏢 About 3E
3E is a global leader in EHS compliance solutions, trusted by companies to navigate complex chemical regulations and improve workplace safety. Working here means joining a mission-driven team that directly helps businesses reduce environmental impact while ensuring regulatory compliance. The remote-first culture and focus on empowering employees make it an attractive place for regulatory experts seeking flexibility and impact.
About This Role
As a Regulatory Solutions Advisor, you'll bridge the gap between 3E's technical capabilities and customer needs, primarily supporting French-speaking clients across EMEA. You'll lead discovery conversations, deliver tailored product demos, and translate complex chemical compliance requirements into actionable solutions. This role is impactful because you'll directly drive new business and cross-sell opportunities while serving as a trusted advisor on SDS, workplace safety, and regulatory trends.
💡 A Day in the Life
A typical day might start with reviewing regulatory updates (e.g., new CLP classifications) and preparing for a discovery call with a French chemical distributor. You'd then deliver a live demo of 3E's SDS authoring tool, addressing the client's compliance pain points. After lunch, you'd collaborate with the Business Development Executive to refine the proposal, then join a team meeting to share customer insights that could influence product enhancements.
🚀 Application Tools
🎯 Who 3E Is Looking For
- A regulatory professional with 5+ years of hands-on experience in chemical compliance, SDS authoring, or product stewardship, ideally within a consultancy or software environment.
- Fluent in French and English (both written and spoken), with the ability to deliver compelling product demonstrations in French to technical and non-technical audiences.
- Comfortable with a consultative sales approach—able to lead discovery conversations, identify customer pain points, and articulate how 3E's solutions solve real regulatory challenges.
- Proactive learner who stays current on EMEA chemical regulations (e.g., REACH, CLP, UK REACH) and can share insights to help shape 3E's product roadmap.
📝 Tips for Applying to 3E
Tailor your CV to highlight specific regulatory frameworks you've worked with (e.g., REACH, CLP, SDS authoring) and quantify your impact (e.g., 'Reduced compliance cycle time by 20%').
In your cover letter, explicitly mention your fluency in French and provide an example of a time you used bilingual skills to support French-speaking clients or partners.
Research 3E's product suite (e.g., 3E Protect, 3E Exchange) and mention how you would demonstrate value for a French chemical manufacturer or distributor.
Emphasize any experience with cross-functional collaboration, such as working with sales teams or product managers to translate customer feedback into product improvements.
Prepare a brief (2-minute) mock product demo in French for a common SDS-related challenge, showing you can simplify technical concepts for a business audience.
✉️ What to Emphasize in Your Cover Letter
