The Town of Brookline is seeking an Assistant Recycling Coordinator to join the Department of Public Works Highway Division and support community-wide sustainability efforts. This role helps plan and enhance the Town’s commercial and municipal recycling initiatives while advancing broader goals related to waste reduction, resource conservation, and environmental stewardship.

Reporting to the Environmental Health Supervisor, the Assistant Recycling Coordinator engages businesses, municipal departments, and residents to promote sustainable practices. The position supports program research and development, provides technical guidance, and helps expand outreach efforts through presentations, educational materials, and public-facing events. The role also assists in coordinating household hazardous waste and electronic recycling operations and supports related committees and interdepartmental projects.

In addition to community outreach and program development, the Assistant Recycling Coordinator contributes to day-to-day program functions such as conducting site visits, preparing reports and grant materials, coordinating with contracted disposal companies, and responding to citizen inquiries.

The position also assists with administrative tasks, record keeping, and seasonal responsibilities within the department, and all other work as required.

Qualifications:
Associates degree in business, marketing or a related field and three to five years of progressively responsible administrative or marketing experience preferably in a municipal environment; or any

Strong communication and public-speaking skills are essential, as the role requires frequent interaction with residents, businesses, and Town departments. The position also calls for knowledge of recycling practices, waste-reduction strategies, and basic environmental principles; the ability to interpret regulations and technical materials; and strong organizational, writing, and computer skills needed to prepare reports, educational materials, and outreach content while managing multiple program tasks with accuracy and attention to detail.
