Lead, Owned Brands

Job Overview

Grove Collaborative is a sustainability-focused consumer products company creating household and personal care essentials that are effective, beautifully designed, and healthier for people and the planet.

We are a certified B Corp, plastic-neutral, and on a mission to transform the CPG industry for good. Why This Role Exists Grove's owned brands - Grove Co.

Job Description

, Rooted Beauty, Grab Green, and 8Greens - are the highest-margin, highest-control part of our assortment and the clearest expression of our human health point of view.

They are also where the hardest problems live: contract manufacturers who need managing, packaging that has to survive a supply chain, claims that have to hold up to a third-party lab, and launch dates that are set by retail partners and don't move.

This role owns those brands end to end - the margin math, the vendor relationships, the product development calendar, the claims and compliance work that gates our sales channels, and the quality problems that surface after launch.

It is a small-team, wide-aperture job: you are the single point of accountability for a domain that touches inventory planning, marketing, creative, quality, finance, and our fulfillment centers, and you do the work yourself rather than routing it to a team.

What You'll Own Owned brand product development and packaging Own the development calendar for Grove Co.

, Rooted Beauty, Grab Green, and 8Greens - new items, seasonal and limited-edition programs, line extensions, and format changes from brief through first production run.

Key Responsibilities

• Build and maintain the specification and briefing standards these programs run on, so a new item moves through development the same way every time rather than being reinvented per launch.
• Direct external design and artwork partners and a small bench of specialist contractors; manage revision cycles against launch dates.
• Negotiate cost, payment terms, MOQs, and lead times.
• Manage supply agreements and quality agreements alongside Legal and Finance, and own vendor onboarding through NetSuite and Tropic.
• Build the evidence: pull the complaint data, size the exposure, recommend whether to fix, re-spec, or discontinue, and bring a clear recommendation rather than a list of options.
• Retail and channel program execution Deliver owned brand programs into retail and marketplace partners on their calendars - QVC TSV builds, Amazon assortment transitions, retailer-specific packaging and pack sizes - including the inbound freight and delivery-window coordination that determines whether revenue lands in the quarter.
• How This Role Operates You will work with high independence.
• Who You Are Required 6+ years in CPG brand management, product development, or category management, with direct ownership of a product line's cost, margin, and development calendar.

Required Skills and Qualifications

• Who You Are Required 6+ years in CPG brand management, product development, or category management, with direct ownership of a product line's cost, margin, and development calendar.
• Brand or buyer-side experience matters more here than pure supply chain or operations background.
• Preferred Experience in home care, personal care, supplements, or another regulated or claims-sensitive category.
• Experience launching into retail or marketplace channels (Amazon, mass, or televised retail) with their packaging and compliance requirements.
• Working knowledge of NetSuite and comfort building your own analysis rather than waiting on a report.
• Our compensation bands are determined based on market-specific cost of living data, meaning that the top of our salary range is reserved for the most experienced candidates in the highest cost of living areas across the country.
• We welcome people of diverse backgrounds, experiences, abilities and perspectives.

Benefits and Perks

• Competitive benefits - medical, vision, dental Equity - shared success is core to our mission Flexible Paid Time Off - we care most about results Free VIP membership and 50% employee discount Working for a company that believes that a small group of people can change the world for the better by creating products and funding initiatives that help the planet!
• In addition to the base salary, this role is eligible for an annual incentive target and equity.
• Explore thousands of thoughtfully vetted products for every room and everyone in your home, including household cleaning, personal care, health and wellness, laundry, clean beauty, kitchen, pantry, kids, baby, pet care, and beyond.
• As a B Corp and Public Benefit Corporation, Grove goes beyond selling products: every order is carbon neutral, supports plastic waste cleanup initiatives, and lets you see and track the positive impact of your choices.
