Program Analyst!

Who We Are

 If you're offered a seat on a rocket ship, don't ask what seat! Just get on.” – Sheryl Sandberg

Ryse Solutions is a rocket ship for the circular economy. Owned by a BIPOC Canadian woman in a male dominated industry, we are not afraid to stand out. We act like a start-up, service clients like a consultant, and truly care about the environment like our lives depend on it (for obvious reasons). We are searching for an individual who shares those qualities. We help companies become more circular and navigate the waters of producer responsibility regulatory compliance.

The Program Analyst will primarily perform the following duties in order to coordinate and monitor the movement of Hazardous and Special Products (HSP)/Blue Box throughout the Province of Ontario to recycling facilities. You will play a pivotal role in building and maintaining strong relationships with our vendors. This role requires a blend of analytics, logistics, vendor management, and environmental expertise, making it a great opportunity for individuals who are passionate about sustainability and committed to driving positive change.
