As the Business Development Director – Bio Cold Chain Packaging, you will be responsible for all aspects of sales and business development activities for global cold chain consumer packaging goods used in medical devices, biotech, and pharmaceutical applications.

Our aspiration is to provide packaging solutions that customers and end-consumers feel great about using. Deliver Different...Liviri.
