An exciting opportunity has arisen within our Recycling and Collections team for a Local Authority Account Manager.
The post holder will be responsible for providing technical support to and developing business cases for local authorities, so that they can review service provision and assess options to increase recycling, increase customer satisfaction and deliver value for money. The successful candidate will help to disseminate the benefits of supporting WRAP’s national consumer campaigns within regional communications. If the local authority proceeds with service changes, the post holder will provide appropriate technical input and advice to support implementation of these changes. There will be a particular focus for this role on urban authorities. The post holder will be required to work for some of the week from Manchester but will also need to work from Banbury as well as travel nationally.
We are looking for candidates with demonstrable knowledge of collection, recycling and sorting systems in operation and the relevant policy and legislative context; strong operational experience in planning and delivering recycling and waste collection services in urban areas, as well as demonstrable understanding of local authority structures and processes. Candidates should also have proven ability to engage with senior stakeholders and decision makers and good experience of developing business cases in support of service change.
This is a full-time, permanent role.
