Join us in creating it.
But the problem isn't just plastic. It's really the throw-away culture at the root of plastic pollution and a host of other problems.
So we're building a movement to "make throw-away go away" through innovation, policy and culture change.
And we want you to join us in changing the world.
Over the past year, UPSTREAM has undergone a metamorphosis to become a public-facing organization, investing in building our brand, projects and services. We need a Marketing Director to help complete our transformation.
The role of the Executive Assistant is to facilitate the seamless transfer of information across the organization, with a primary focus on financial procedures and providing administrative support to the Executive Director.
"Of all the organizations I work with regularly, UPSTREAM is the one that most inspires me." Kelly Kryc, Conservation Director, New England Aquarium
We help businesses innovate out of single-use to reuse and engage their customers around why it matters, and why it’s better.
We help community leaders pass reuse ordinances that make sit-down dining disposable-free and pave the way for reusable to-go.
We tell the stories of the pioneers and innovators going throw-away-free. And we partner with them on campaigns to make single-use history.
