Inolex recently announced the appointment of Stephen Carter as commercial director for the company's head of North America sales. In his role, he will oversee regional strategy and support customer growth across the U.S., Canada and Mexico.
Safe, Sustainable Focus
Since joining Inolex in 2024, Carter has reportedly helped evolve the company’s U.S. customer engagement model to accelerate the adoption of safe, natural and sustainable ingredients.
“We’re at a pivotal point in the industry where offering performance is expected but delivering sustainable impact is much more nuanced,” said Carter. “We understand that starts with helping our customers formulate success and think differently about problems they’re working on.”
Collaborative Approach
With a background in cosmetic chemistry, product management and commercial strategy, Carter brings a collaborative approach to formulation and product design.
“Stephen has a phenomenal ability to rally teams around an idea and put in place actionable plans to achieve success,” said Art Knox, president of Inolex. “He takes a flexible, genuine approach to uncover client needs, and works collaboratively to find solutions that bring results.”
Carter additionally has nearly 15 years of experience and active involvement with the NY Society of Cosmetic Chemists.
