Cradle to Cradle Expert

C2C Platform is looking for a C2C expert to strengthen its team in Brussels, Belgium.

C2C Platform is an accredited assessment body that guides organizations towards Cradle to Cradle Certified® product certification. The Platform is an initiative of Sustenuto, an advisory firm that develops sustainability at the core of organizations.

As C2C expert of C2C Platform, you will be the key point of contact for clients seeking C2C Certified certification for their product. In this role, you will combine two very different competencies:

1. A technical interest with a high degree of attention to detail
2. Very strong people skills

You will reassure our customers that they will successfully complete a complex certification path. In addition, you will be a cultural chameleon with empathic listening skills, apt at dealing with very different cultures, often within one and the same day.

You will excel in this role thanks to adjacent expertise, and the opportunity to receive additional coaching and training.

As C2C expert, you will:

• Guide our clients towards achieving C2C Certified product certification
• Effectively manage C2C Certified certification programs from start to finish
• Cooperate with team members to ensure that we combine and accelerate our learning curves
• Be able to work independently
• Strive towards continuous improvement of the ways in which we guide clients towards C2C Certified certification
• Be motivated to make the world a better place, one successful C2C Certified product at a time
• Be based in Belgium

This role requires:

• A keen interest in the Cradle to Cradle vision with, preferably, a background in science or technology, product development, environmental or material science
• Attention to detail: This is a source of energy for you
• Preferably, experience in successfully leading complex customer projects
• Being able to work in a very multi-cultural setting, respectfully dealing with clients from around the globe
• Customer centricity: Placing the customer center stage comes natural to you
• Emphatic listening skills
• Willingness to do site visits at our clients’ manufacturing facilities, wherever that may be (Covid-19 permitting). Expected travel time will be limited (less than 5%)
• Fluency in English, combined with fluency in either Dutch, French or German, both spoken and written. Additional languages are a benefit

What we can offer you:

• A small and dynamic team with a start-up mentality and a can-do attitude
• Flexibility on the job, including the possibility of remote working
• A competitive salary package
• An environment where there is room for learning and continuous improvement
• A pleasant office environment at the Impact House in Brussels, home to various organizations that strive to make the world a better place
• A team of 16 enthusiastic and experienced colleagues at C2C Platform and Sustenuto who are eager to share and learn from one another
• A full-time role, but part-time can be considered

You can apply for this position by sending your CV and motivation letter to talent@c2cplatform.eu.
