Company Motive / EXPANSION
Our company is looking to expand its operations by entering the environmental services (ES) industry in Singapore. Throughout the years, sustainability has been a focal point for the development of Singapore as a whole – individuals, businesses, and society. Currently, we are faced with new challenges such as climate change and growing resource constraints. Therefore, it is crucial to proactively participate in the transition towards a green and sustainable future. The “Singapore Green Plan 2030” provides a framework to achieve this goal as efficiently as possible. From our company's point of view, we strongly believe that this business expansion will present good economic opportunities to succeed as well as contribute to Singapore's aspiration to be at the forefront of technology innovation in building a sustainable future.
Job Specification
We are looking to recruit a Business Development Engineer to assist in the expansion into the ES industry of Singapore. We require an individual with experience working in the technological/engineering industry as well as being able to conduct market analysis on themes such as:
(i) Green & circular economy
(ii) Clean and renewable energy sources (solar, wind, hydrogen fuel cell)
(i) Sustainable production, sustainable consumption, and sustainable waste & resource management.
As a company, we are placing Singapore’s “Zero Waste Masterplan” as the pivot. By adopting circular economy thinking, the aim is to eliminate the concept of “waste” and keep our resources within a closed loop, i.e., reintroducing “waste” into the production cycle. This role will involve extensive research and market analysis regarding how our company can support activities such as:
(i) The improvement of existing waste management technologies.
(ii) Developing less energy-intensive and more eco-friendly methods to treat and recycle e-waste.
(i) Devising frameworks for our company to implement these solutions with other companies in Singapore.
This role will also involve identifying ways to optimize the waste management infrastructure, from collection to waste treatment and post-treatment options, such as waste-to-energy (WTE) plants, integrated waste management facilities (IWMF), waste treatment facilities, and the efficient transportation of waste.
Additionally, in support of the ongoing efforts of de-carbonisation in Singapore, the candidate will explore business opportunities in areas such as solar, hydrogen, geothermal, carbon capture, and energy storage systems
