BUOYANCY PLASTICS FOR CHANGE RECYCLING PRIVATE LIMITED
Plastics For Change has developed an ethical sourcing platform to create sustainable livelihoods for the urban poor, while transitioning the industry towards a circular economy. Our deal process and mobile platform provides waste pickers with access to fair and consistent income opportunities. Similar to fair trade agriculture, our platform creates transparency and accountability from the base of the supply chain to the store shelf. This results in more efficient shared-value chains and higher quality recycled plastic. We provide expertise to help catalyze brands and manufacturers to replace the use of virgin plastic with ethically sourced recycled plastic, thereby immediately improving the social and environmental impact of their products.
We are looking for a highly committed and passionate individual who believes in bringing change in the informal recycling sector through community relations and capacity building. This individual should be passionate about grass-root field work. We are looking for people who share our values and are driven to create social and economic inclusion.
