As a Senior Consultant Circular Economy, you assist organizations in navigating the complex and rapidly changing landscape of sustainability issues. You advise clients, perform qualitative and quantitative analyses, and take responsibility for independent workstreams within various assignments.  

You work on circular-related issues regarding raw material use, (critical) materials, product lifespan, reuse, repair, high-quality recycling, regeneration, and circular business models. In doing so, you make the connection with climate, pollution, water, biodiversity, and the necessary due diligence for (renewable) raw materials for, for example, batteries and renewable energy.  

In addition, you help clients apply developments in sustainability laws and regulations and international frameworks to strategy and business operations. You oversee the connection between these developments and support organizations in translating new requirements into concrete priorities, policies, processes, and actions. In doing so, you look beyond compliance alone and help clients use regulation as a starting point for strategic choices. 

You combine broad knowledge of sustainability with specific expertise in one or more themes. You bring structure to complex issues and translate analyses and developments into clear advice and concrete perspectives for action for clients. Depending on the assignment, you also support organizations in developing and implementing strategies, roadmaps, and transition plans. 
 
In addition to our work for clients, we make plenty of room for connecting with one another. We come together throughout the year for social activities. We find it important to build a close bond within our team. Therefore, we make room for personal attention and involvement, even outside of work.
