Nebraska Recycling Council seeks new operations director

The Nebraska Recycling Council (NRC) is hiring an operations and communications director (OC), who the NRC says is responsible for the daily and ongoing operations of the association.

The Lincoln, Nebraska-based council says the newly hired staff member will report to its executive director and will have responsibilities entailing membership program recruitment and management and events coordination.

“The OC has responsibility for a wide range of matters supporting the essential ongoing operations of NRC, including but not limited to internal functions such as administrative activities and office management, operational policies and procedures, compliance and financial reporting obligations, invoice and payment processing, contract management and administration, membership program management (database, programs, and events), event coordination, communications and marketing management,” states the NRC.

In the same e-mail announcing the open position, current OC Allison Majerus says she has accepted a position at Omaha, Nebraska-based engineering and consulting firm HDR after having worked for the NRC since 2020.

“It’s not easy to leave NRC, but I am excited for this opportunity to learn, be challenged, and contribute to the solid waste management industry,” writes Majerus.

NRC, which on its website describes its mission as being to “maximize the economic and environmental benefits of resource recovery in Nebraska,” says it is accepting cover letters, resumes and references that can be e-mailed to Executive Director Kimberly Carroll Steward at director@nrcne.org.
