This opportunity is suited to an internationally expert with a PhD in a relevant discipline and a minimum of 20 years' professional experience in environmental policy, plastics and packaging policy, circular economy, waste management or Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR). The successful candidate will have extensive experience advising governments, particularly in Global South countries, on the development and implementation of plastics and packaging policy, including governance, financing, enforcement and social inclusion considerations.
