**Job summary**:
The UK is committed to moving towards a more circular economy, meaning we keep resources in use for as long as possible, extract maximum value, minimise waste and promote resource efficiency. The Collection and Packaging Reforms (CPR) within the Resources and Waste Directorate are key to this ambition. This a major Government programme, reforming how packaging is handled within the UK, through three distinct projects:
An Extended Producer Responsibility scheme for Packaging in the UK (pEPR). pEPR will require obligated producers to pay the full costs of managing packaging when it becomes waste. It will provide financial incentives through variation of the fees charged to packaging producers to encourage sustainable design, production and use of packaging.

A Deposit Return Scheme for drinks containers in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland. A DRS will see a redeemable deposit placed on each drink container in-scope. When a consumer purchases a drink, they will pay this deposit. The consumer will redeem their deposit when they return the drinks container to a return point for recycling. This provides a financial incentive for consumers to recycle in-scope containers.

Increasing the consistency of materials collected for recycling, for both households and businesses, in England. Through improved collection provision at home and at work, this policy is expected to help change behaviours and to reduce confusion over the materials that can and cannot be recycled.

It is a friendly and collaborative place to work, where we attach importance to how we do things - values, learning and development, rewarding success. These are demanding but exciting roles with the opportunity to contribute to the implementation of a major reform to packaging in the UK.
