We are looking for a Director, Sustainability to lead Oura’s enterprise sustainability strategy and build the systems that will support it.
This is a new director-level role and the first dedicated sustainability leader at Oura. The role sits in Supply Chain because many of Oura’s most important sustainability decisions involve materials, suppliers, manufacturing, logistics, packaging, returns, recycling, and product end of life. Supply Chain gives the role a direct connection to the teams and partners that can turn strategy into action. The role also has company-wide responsibility. It will partner with Manufacturing, Sourcing, Logistics, Quality, Finance, Legal, Marketing, and Customer Experience to put that strategy into practice.
The Sustainability Director will develop Oura’s point of view on sustainability at a company level. They will work with Product, Industrial Design, Hardware Engineering, and Supply Chain technical leaders to decide how sustainability should shape the product roadmap, design choices, materials, manufacturing, and supplier strategy. They will set a practical roadmap and define how we will measure progress across environmental sustainability, responsible sourcing, product lifecycle impact, regulatory readiness, and relevant social and governance topics.
This role will suit someone who can set direction, work through details, and build relationships across the company. The person in this role will need to make sound decisions with incomplete information and explain the tradeoffs clearly.
This is a hybrid role based in our San Francisco, California office. The expectation is to be onsite at least two to three days per week.
