You will also participate in planning daily operations, for example by ordering the emptying of containers from our contractor. An important part of your job is to ensure that the facility is clean, safe, and gives a welcoming impression.

As the face of the recycling center, you have good social skills and enjoy providing great service. You are positive, solution-oriented, and like to create order, while also being flexible and able to handle unexpected situations. Since the workgroup is small, we value your willingness to collaborate and contribute to a good team spirit.
