Turn Waste into Opportunity. Turn Ideas into Commercial Success.
Are you naturally curious? Do you enjoy solving problems, exploring new markets and spotting commercial opportunities others miss?
We're recruiting on behalf of one of the UK's most innovative circular economy businesses, helping transform recovered materials into valuable new products and revenue streams.
Reporting to the Country Manager, you'll play a key role in identifying new applications, markets and customers for recycled materials, helping shape the future of sustainable manufacturing.

The Role

Your challenge is simple:
How can we create even greater value from them?
Working closely with the Country Manager, you'll research new markets, engage with manufacturers, identify innovative product applications and build relationships with organisations that can transform recycled materials into commercially successful products.
