TOMRA: Where Innovation Meets Impact
At TOMRA, we’re not just recycling—we’re reinventing it.
Our mission? Clean Loop Recycling: a smarter, greener way to keep drink containers in circulation and out of our oceans, streets, and landfills. Thanks to our cutting-edge reverse vending technology, used containers get a second (and third, and fourth!) chance at life—turning back into containers again and again.
With over 900 collection points across New South Wales, Queensland, Northern Territory, Western Australia, Victoria, and Tasmania, we’re proud to be making a real difference across Australia.
When you join TOMRA, you become a Looper—part of a passionate crew that’s all about doing good for the planet and our communities. We live and breathe our values of Responsibility, Passion, and Innovation, and we’re always looking for people who share that energy to join us.
We’re also proud to be an equal opportunity employer, celebrating the diversity of our team and the communities we serve. No matter your background, culture, language, or life journey—your perspective matters here.
