BASIC FUNCTION

Pritchard Sports & Entertainment Group is hiring a Zero-Waste Supervisor. The primary objective of the Zero Waste Supervisor is to maintain the State Farm Arena's zero-waste status. The Arena’s Zero Waste Team is expected to maintain a landfill diversion rate of more than 90% for each event (meaning, over 90% of all Arena waste is recycled, reused, or composted). While a lot goes into leading the Zero Waste operation, the Zero Waste Supervisor must ensure the following for all event and non-event days:

• Delegate tasks and uphold rules to ensure the Sorting Team remains productive and safe

• Finish sorting and running all waste after each event

• Maintain the organization and cleanliness of the designated ‘zero waste areas’

• Manage the storage and logistics of materials to be donated, reused, and recycled

• Communicate with Zero Waste Team Leads and Sorters with clarity and control.

• Hand-sort waste on a daily/nightly basis. Ensure all sorting is done correctly and completely.

• Ensure all sorting equipment is used correctly and safely.

• Maintain waste infrastructure inventory and manage its storage and logistics.

• Responsible for completing shift checklists (pre-event, event, and post-event tasks).

• Collect data and maintain databases (e.g., weights, times, costs, hauls, material type, etc.)

• Utilize the Atlanta Hawk’s work order software.

• Create and execute audits.

• Maintain organization, storage, and preparation of donations or precious waste items to be sent to local recyclers/organizations (Salvation Army, the scrap yard, etc.)

• Work efficiently and problem-solve on the go; task prioritization is key during fast-paced sorting operations.
