Description

USED OIL INDUSTRY COUNCIL OPPORTUNITY
The Alberta Recycling Management Authority (ARMA) acts on behalf of the province to oversee end-of
- life processing of tires, electronics, paint and used oil materials. Our industry is rooted in the principle of circular economy where resources and products are kept in use for as long as possible, and regenerated into new products and materials at the end of their earlier life cycle.


If you are passionate about inspiring a future without waste, having fun, embracing change and pursuing growth we would love to hear from you.


We are committed to supporting diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives in our recruitment processes and in our work environment, where every individual feels valued, respected and a sense of belonging.


By submitting your resume and personal information to ARMA, and/or participating in a personal interview, you acknowledge and consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information by ARMA to determine your suitability for employment, Board, Council and/or Committee opportunities.


Organization Overview
ARMA is accountable to the Minister of Environment and Protected Areas and, hence, to the people of
Alberta. ARMA is governed by a Board of Directors; these Directors represent a broad spectrum of interested parties. In addition to the Board of Directors, there are four Designated Material Industry
Councils (Electronics, Paint, Tires and Used Oil) who provide industry insight and recommendations to
ARMA administration and the Board of Directors on key aspects of each respective program.

This allows direct involvement by key participants in the development of environmentally sound and effective approaches for managing the designated materials.
