Job description

At Greyparrot, we’re transforming how the world understands and manages waste. Our AI-powered analytics are helping industry leaders gain unprecedented visibility into waste streams – and we’re just getting started. We know that people who know the industry inside-out have a unique take on how this technology can change the day-to-day of the industry.

We’re putting out an open call to connect with professionals who bring deep experience and day-to-day knowledge of the waste industry, especially in customer-facing or data-driven roles.

Whether you’ve worked on the ground in materials recovery, led strategic partnerships in waste management, or built systems to track material flows and performance, we want to hear from you.

We believe that the future of waste recovery will be shaped by people who know the challenges first-hand — and who are ready to think differently to solve them.

Successful candidates will need these 3 things:

  • Experience in waste management, recycling, MRFs or EPR who are based in the UK or Europe

  • Experience in working with waste or recycling industry stakeholders and/or waste data

  • Excitement about how technology and data can make real-world impact for the waste value chain.

Interested?

About Greyparrot:

The world is in a waste crisis.

Currently we produce 2.1 billion tons of solid waste per year. Data collection of the waste we produce is non-existent, meaning no systematic transparency and no accountability. It means that recycling targets are not upheld, dumping of waste into our oceans remains nobody's responsibility, recyclables get sent to landfill or incineration, and producers get away with sub-standard packaging. Thus, recycling rates stubbornly remain at 10% and, unless we change, by 2040 the plastic stock in the ocean will have quadrupled - a problem that already costs society $1.5 trillion each year.

Our mission is to increase transparency and automation in waste management to accelerate the circular economy. Currently, our camera system and AI software are deployed in recycling plants and waste facilities around the world to measure material flows and provide waste analytics. We have compiled a team of experts to deploy our technology and we’re looking to expand our team.
