About us

We are looking for a motivated Junior Formulation Chemist to join EdenEve and support our formulation and product development work on-site.

Sunday Natural emerged from a long-standing passion and research in the fields of health, healing, and personal growth. The lack of natural, high-quality products on the market was the original motivation for founding Sunday Natural in 2013. We aim to produce the products we ourselves would love to buy – as natural as possible, absolutely pure, free from any additives, and of the highest quality. In a strategic partnership with CVC, Sunday Natural is now one of Germany's most renowned quality manufacturers, with its own research and development department in Berlin. For the continuous improvement of our products, we collaborate with selected research institutes, scientists, therapists, farmers, and professional associations.
We take our ecological responsibility very seriously: that’s why the majority of our product range is vegan. We also take an innovative approach to packaging: most of our products are packaged in glass, making them almost entirely recyclable.
Our diverse team in Berlin consists of over 290 employees from more than 40 nationalities and continues to grow – but at a sustainable pace.

Your role

This is a hands-on, lab-based role, ideal for an early-career scientist who wants to actively contribute to the development of high-quality cosmetic products.

• Evaluate raw materials, actives, and functional ingredients.
• Maintain accurate documentation of experiments, formulations, and specifications to support Product Information Files (PIFs).
• Ensure laboratory work complies with GLP (Good Laboratory Practice) and internal safety standards.
• Help maintain laboratory equipment, materials, and overall lab organization.
• Collaborate with product development, regulatory teams, and external laboratories as needed.

Your profile

• A degree (or near completion) in Cosmetic Science, Chemistry, Pharmaceutical Sciences, or a related field.
• Initial practical or academic experience in cosmetic or formulation laboratories.
• Basic understanding of cosmetic formulations, especially skincare products.

• A structured, careful, and reliable working style.
• Passion for natural ingredients, green chemistry, and sustainable formulation approaches.
• Willingness to work full-time on-site in the laboratory.
• Fluency in English; German or additional languages are a plus.

Nice to have:

• Internship or trainee experience in cosmetic formulation or R&D.
• Familiarity with natural or clean beauty standards.
• Basic knowledge of EU cosmetic regulations.
• Strong interest in formulation science and performance-driven skincare.

Our goal is to foster a collaborative, supportive, and inclusive work environment with a diverse group of motivated, talented, and visionary team members.
We highly value equality of opportunity and inclusivity, and we would like to particularly encourage women and candidates from under-represented backgrounds to apply, even if you don’t match with 100% of the requirements.
