Circular Communities Scotland
About the role
Circular Communities Scotland is a network membership organisation, dedicated to supporting the
establishment of a thriving circular economy in Scotland. We support and represents repair,
reuse and recycling charities and social enterprises across the country. Our members prevent
valuable products and materials from entering landfill, create local jobs, economic
opportunities, and help promote and create social and environmental justice in their
communities.
Part of the work we do to support a thriving circular economy in Scotland is through
our Reuse Consortium. A self-sustaining business
model, the consortium is made up of Circular Communities Scotland members who provide reuse
furniture and white goods to local authorities across Scotland through a Scotland Excel
Framework Agreement.
Circular Communities Scotland is recruiting a Reuse Consortium Officer to support our
award-winning Reuse Consortium to grow and continue to thrive. If you have stakeholder and
project management skills, good attention to detail and a commitment to supporting the growth
of the circular economy in Scotland, we would love to hear from you. If you are successful in
your application, you will join a growing and thriving team at Circular Communities Scotland
and be contributing to delivering greater environmental and social impact across Scotland.
What we are looking for
We are looking for a candidate who will be a steady pair of hands for overseeing the day-to-day
operations of our successful Reuse Consortium, with good project management, relationship
building and communication skills.
This role requires someone with good organisational skills who can manage multiple workstreams
effectively and is also a strong team player. You will need to be able to build and maintain
positive and professional relationships with a range of stakeholders, including our Reuse
Consortium members, Local Authorities and Housing Associations and the national procurement
body Scotland Excel. A willingness and aptitude to engage in a range of daily tasks such as
report writing, facilitating meetings, and supporting our members and buyers with any issues or
conflicts that may arise is important, as well as a keenness to support the growth and
development of the Consortium.
