Project Associate
Nothing Wasted Consulting
Nothing Wasted Consulting is a sustainable consulting company that assists companies and cities in reducing their solid waste footprint. We consult on everything from property waste management to large city events and venues looking to divert waste away from landfills.
Our team is currently looking to expand by adding new team members to assist with our upcoming projects. These projects include SB1383 compliance for various waste generators (businesses, schools, etc.) located around the SF Bay Area, waste diversion rate reporting for MRFs, and waste management for small & large-scale in-person events. Anyone with a passion for working in a hands-on role in the sustainable waste management industry without wanting a full-time commitment would be an ideal fit.
All prospective team members must be comfortable sorting through organics (compost), recycling, and landfill (trash) piles, and be able to stand for long hours. Commuting to various locations around the SF Bay Area (and occasionally farther) is required. Housing stipends will be provided if the project location requires an unusually long commute. Waste sorting training will be provided on-site by current team members. The majority of work will be done on-site at these various locations, though occasionally some projects will allow for some remote work. Customer service & data entry skills are also desired for certain technical assistance projects, though they are not required.
This position is contract-based work and currently has no official benefits. Interested individuals can send their resumes to melissa@nothingwastedconsulting.com & max@nothingwastedconsulting.com or feel free to contact us at (858) 827-2178.
