Based in Brussels , the successful candidate will lead the company’s European engagement strategy, develop trusted institutional relationships and help shape Super’s long-term presence across European policy and industry networks. Success in this role will be measured by the quality of regulatory outcomes, strength of institutional relationships, business impact and Super’s reputation as a preferred and trusted partner within the European policy ecosystem.
