Bio-Based Materials

The current vacancy is with the Sustainable Resources Directorate, Sustainable Supply Chains and Bioeconomy Unit.

The Unit’s mission is to provide independent evidence in support of EU policies on the clean and green transition, such as circular economy and bioeconomy, towards sustainable and resilient supply chains.

This position aims at addressing methodological aspects related to accounting of environmental footprint and circular flows in bio-based product systems.
