About the role

Vilgain makes high-quality food - clean, functional ingredients, no shortcuts, no filler additives. We're 700+ people across Prague, Brno and London, already selling in 12+ markets across Europe, the UK, the US and beyond. We're on a mission to change how people think about food, and we're growing fast to do it - expanding internationally and building a company where people have a real say in what we make and how we make it, not just a seat at the table. Your mission 🎯 Everything we say about our products, from packaging to a single Instagram post, has to be accurate and legally compliant, and it still has to sell. Today, compliance checks happen case by case, without a shared library of approved claims or clear guidelines for the teams who write content. You'll own this: you'll make sure every claim we publish is correct and well supported, and give marketing and product the tools to get it right from the start. What will you do? - Review and approve all customer-facing content for compliance with EU and Czech food law, including the web and e-shop, product descriptions, packaging, online and offline advertising, social media, emailing, banners and PR - Make sure every nutrition and health claim is authorised, correctly worded and meets its conditions of use, with no medicinal or misleading claims - Build and maintain an internal library of approved claims and compliance guidelines for the marketing team - Support NPD with formulations, functional ingredient combinations, ingredient suitability and claim strategy - Co-create and fact-check articles and educational materials, making sure they are backed by verified scientific sources - Help develop internal tools such as nutritional rating and product development criteria - Train internal teams, including customer care and retail, on nutrition and compliant communication What do we expect from you? - You've worked in food or supplement regulatory affairs or marketing compliance, ideally in sports nutrition or FMCG, and have reviewed and approved real customer-facing content - You have a university degree in nutrition, food science, pharmacy or a related field - You know Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006 on nutrition and health claims, Commission Regulation (EU) No 432/2012 on permitted health claims and Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011 on food information to consumers in depth - You have working knowledge of Czech food, advertising and consumer protection law - You can critically evaluate scientific literature - You're pragmatic: you propose compliant wording that still sells, rather than just saying "no" - You take ownership and don't need to be chased to finish things - You make good decisions on your own, without a playbook to follow - You'd rather get it right than just get it done What we offer: - Join our dynamic, fast‑paced team where ideas come to life and boredom doesn’t stand a chance - just like our 100%+ yearly growth. - 5 weeks of vacation, flexible hours, and remote work options, get monthly shopping credits. - Stay connected through team events, breakfasts, and group workouts.
