**Researcher - Environmental Policy**

**Reporting To: to be confirmed**

**Location**:Rugby**

**Salary: £28,000-£38,000 depending on experience**

No agencies please

**Who are we**

Lorax EPI is an environmental technology company of 50+ people based in Rugby, Warwickshire. Founded in 2014, our mission is to simplify the heavy burden of environmental compliance regulations, which companies find themselves facing, through innovative cloud software and consulting services.

Lorax Compliance Ltd is an equal opportunities employer.

The companies we work with are obligated to report under packaging legislation, corporate sustainability policies, plastics taxes and the Extended Producer Responsibility regulations, which make them responsible for the waste they create; this covers the products they make (electronic, batteries, têxtiles, tires), the packaging they supply it in, and the supply-chain they purchase it from. The regulations we handle are worldwide; we have an international presence both in reporting scope and customers.

**Description**

You are proactive, persevering and can understand and relay complex information to multi-level stakeholders. You have experience in a research role and are interested in a position where you can grow your skills to support a wide variety of internal and external client projects. You have a keen interest in environmental issues, particularly around waste, packaging, recyclability and producer responsibility and you have a tenacity to research complex information along with strong writing and presentation skills. You can critically read legal and technical information and are able to fact check to a high standard. You are organised and can follow company procedures to support your work on multiple projects.

The role primarily involves undertaking research into global Extended Producer responsibility legislation including, but not limited to, packaging, WEEE, batteries and têxtiles. You will need to be confident enough to develop good working relationships with external organisations such as Compliance Schemes, NGOs and Government bodies and be happy to spend a large proportion of the role in a direct research capacity to keep on top of any updates or changes to our topics of interest.

This is an exciting role in a legislative environment that is constantly developing and changing. If you enjoy learning new things and helping others understand how they will be affected by change, we want to hear from you.

**Essential Skills**
- 4+ Yrs of experience
- Independently perform components of a research program with general guidance by a senior member of the research team (collect, record, compile, process, and analyze the data collected)
- Provide professional contributions to research programs and projects requiring specialized knowledge and experience.
- Develop, or assist in the development of, complex research-related work assignments, plans, and protocols.
- Solve a range of straightforward problems that may include proposing and implementing procedural and data modifications.
- Make independent judgements and decisions based on the clients wants and needs.
- Suggest alternative research methods, and modify, or develop new procedures and techniques to increase efficiency.
- Write client specific proposals and ensure all time is calculated and budgeted for.
- Provide work direction or supervision to students and other research staff.

**Key Skills**
- **Inclusive research**:You can understand the diversity of client needs and the need to make deliverables usable and accessible for everyone.
- **Data management**: You can understand data governance and how it works in relation to data collected. You can store data correctly and complete all project documentation in line with company policy.
- **Strategic insight**:You can understand what problem the team is trying to solve. You can align user research activities to inform decision making and action.
- **Teamwork and Communication**:You can communicate effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders. You can support and host discussions within a multidisciplinary team, with potentially difficult dynamics. You can be an advocate for the team externally, and can manage differing perspectives.
- **Data quality assurance, validation and linkage**: You can identify appropriate ways to collect, collate and prepare data. You can decide if data is accurate and fit for purpose. You can prepare and cleanse data with limited guidance.

**Desirable**
- Knowledge of environmental regulations
- Knowledge of CRM systems
- An interest in developing environmental regulations and technologies
- UK driving licence
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent
