Responsibilities

• Responsible for overseeing PaintCare operations within an assigned region. This will require regular in-person visits to paint retailers and reuse stores, local government household hazardous waste (HHW) programs, and other solid waste facilities, including transfer stations, landfills, and recycling centers. 
• Provide excellent customer service by establishing relationships and regularly contacting participating paint retail stores, local government partners, and other program stakeholders to troubleshoot and ensure satisfaction with the PaintCare program. 
• Identify potential paint drop-off sites for recruitment. Explain how to become a PaintCare drop-off site and evaluate suitability for partnering with PaintCare.

• Set up new paint drop-off sites by overseeing the onboarding process, which includes contracting, providing on-site training, and coordinating paint collection and transportation services. 
• Arrange transportation services from temporary HHW events, plan and facilitate PaintCare-hosted collection and paint giveaway events, and process large volume pick-up requests from painting contractors, businesses, and other organizations. 
• Hand deliver point-of-sale and outreach materials to potential and current drop-off sites. Monitor the use and usability of materials by sites; place sign and other point-of-sale material orders and follow up with sites to ensure delivery and use.
• Be a highly visible resource in the region for connecting the public with paint reuse and recycling opportunities. This may include participating in community events such as Earth Day. 
• Make presentations to small and large groups (e.g., home shows, conferences, trade associations).
• Attend local, state, and national stakeholder meetings and conferences. 
• Provide local knowledge and insight to our internal communications team to improve regional community engagement initiatives.
