This is an exciting opportunity for a skilled and mission‑driven leader to guide Refurbs’ repair, reuse, and upcycling programmes, supporting local jobs, reducing waste, and collaborating with key partners across Wales.
Job Title: Head of Resource Recovery & Management
Location: Refurbs, Flint
Number of hours per week: Full time - 37.5 hours
Salary: £45,000 (full time)
Are you ready to redefine “waste” as a resource for Wales?
Refurbs is a leading non-profit dedicated to the circular economy and we are looking for a visionary Head of Resource Recovery & Management to lead our flagship Repair and Reuse Initiatives in Flintshire.
If you have a deep understanding of resource management and a passion for the "Reduce, Reuse, Repair" hierarchy then this could be your best career move yet!
As a key member of our leadership team, with excellent people management skills, you will oversee the strategic and operational success of our recovery and reuse operations. You’ll help move the organisation beyond traditional waste management, focusing on repair, upcycling, and high-value redistribution and drive our mission to keep materials in use, support local jobs, and hit Wales’ ambitious zero-waste targets!
You will be our face in the sector, collaborating with local authorities, Welsh Government stakeholders, and community partners. You will be articulate in using data to tell our story—tracking carbon savings, tonnage diverted from landfill, and the social value created for our community.
