Hey,

Welcome to Green Jobs Rising - Jobs edition. 

Today, we are sharing a list of jobs in the circular economy.

A circular economy is a model of resource production and consumption that involves sharing, leasing, reusing, repairing, refurbishing, and recycling materials and products to extend product life cycles for as long as possible.

In this system, materials never become waste and nature is regenerated.

Denmark-based consultancy NTU International has, for the third consecutive month, topped circular economy recruitment across Africa, posting 92 of the 111 advertised roles. Specialising in programme management, primarily for EU-funded projects, the firm is recruiting junior and senior experts across 52 African countries.

These are the roles:

Eastern Africa

West Africa

Southern Africa

North Africa

Central Africa

Pan-African
