About Dawn Bostwick

I lead teams through change with steadiness, clear judgment, and a focus on helping people do their best work. Most of my career has been spent in environments where things are shifting, new expectations, new pressures, and new ways of working, and I have learned how to bring order, calm, and direction when it matters most.At Amcor, I am responsible for a large portfolio that touches major consumer brands. My work centers on strengthening supplier relationships, improving how we operate, and making sure teams have the structure and information they need to move with confidence. I care deeply about building workplaces where people feel supported and where decisions are made with clarity and purpose.My approach is straightforward: be honest, be steady, and make sure people understand what we are doing and why. I focus on practical systems, clear communication, and anticipating issues before they become problems. Whether I am working with plant teams, commercial partners, or leadership, I try to make the work easier, not harder.I am motivated by work that strengthens organizations and gives people the tools and stability they need to succeed, not just in the moment, but over the long term.
