Catherine didn’t plan to end up in the world of waste and compliance.⁠
She started in admin. Fell in love with numbers.⁠
⁠
And somewhere along the way, discovered a deep passion for ensuring materials end up in the right places.⁠
⁠
Now she works in producer responsibility, translating regulation into real-world impact, helping electrical, battery and packaging waste get properly recycled and kept out of landfill.⁠
⁠
But what brought her to Women in Recycling isn’t just her technical know-how.⁠
⁠
It’s her belief that we can do better. For women. For workplaces. For future leaders.⁠
⁠
Catherine, we’re pleased to have your thoughtfulness and fire on the board.⁠

Meet Jade: unfiltered, unapologetic, and part of the Women in Recycling board.⁠
⁠
Her advice to anyone starting out in the industry?⁠
⁠
“Just go for it. You don’t need to sound smarter than you are. Talk how you talk. Be who you are. You belong.”⁠

Let’s be honest.⁠
⁠
The recycling and metals industries haven’t always been known for inclusion.⁠
⁠
But we’re changing that.⁠
⁠
Women in Recycling is proud to be exhibiting at UK Metals Expo 2025, where we’ll be sharing stories, building community, and showing that this space can be one of growth, inspiration, and collaboration.⁠
⁠
We exist to challenge stereotypes and break down barriers, because when women thrive, the whole industry benefits.⁠
⁠
Come chat with us, share your journey, and help us shape a future where everyone has a seat at the table.⁠
⁠
There might even be a bit of merch for you to get your hands on, too....⁠
