Packaging Leaders Invited to Join PEPR SASG
PackUK are now welcoming expressions of interest (EOI) for the appointment of members of the Scheme Administrator Steering Group.
PackUK, the Scheme Administrator for Extended Producer Responsibility for Packaging (pEPR), is committed to working with experts from across the packaging value chain to guide it in its work.
The Scheme Administrator Steering Group plays a key role in supporting this close working relationship and brings together skilled professionals from across the packaging value chain who are passionate about recycling and environmental sustainability.
The Steering Group provides valuable perspectives and recommendations to the Scheme Administrator Executive Committee (SA ExCo) on the operational functions of the Scheme Administrator, supporting it to:
- deliver a system that creates maximum environmental benefits through knowledge sharing and collaboration
- deliver maximum efficiency and effectiveness of the collection and packaging system
These recommendations play a central role in shaping PackUK as it grows and develops. While the group is not directly involved in decision-making, it serves as a trusted source of insight comprising members who will have a wealth of operational and policy expertise from a variety of both public and private sector organisations.
