Partnerships Coordinator, Mining and Resources – Containers for Change

12 month fixed-term contract

Western Australia Return Recycle Renew (WARRRL) is the Scheme Coordinator for Containers for Change, leading Western Australia’s recycling revolution.

These refund points create meaningful employment through commercial operators, social enterprises, and not-for-profit organisations across the state.

Now two years into our strategic plan, WARRRL is focussed on delivering the next phase of impact.

Our vision is clear: to create a circular economy for containers that delivers positive environmental and social outcomes for Western Australia
