About European Resource Hub

European Resource Hub AB is developing Resource Hub, a digital B2B marketplace for secondary raw materials, reusable equipment and related logistics services.

The platform is designed to make it easier and more secure for verified companies to buy and sell resources, equipment, find transport solutions and identify new business opportunities. By combining industry knowledge, artificial intelligence, standardisation and digital technology, our ambition is to contribute to increased reuse, recycling and circular resource flows across Europe.

We are now looking for someone to assist CEO who understands the market, knows its key players and can help turn Resource Hub into the preferred marketplace for the Northern European waste and recycling industry.

Your main responsibility

You will be responsible for developing Resource Hub’s market position and commercial network in Northern Europe.

Your responsibilities will include:

• analysing the waste, recycling and secondary raw materials markets in Northern Europe
• identifying relevant material streams, market segments and commercial opportunities
• mapping potential buyers, sellers, recycling companies, waste management companies and logistics providers
• establishing and developing relationships with leading industry players
• recruiting companies and organisations to the Resource Hub marketplace
• developing partnerships with industry associations, public-sector organisations and commercial operators

We would particularly like you to have:
