Careers
Join our crew of brave, curious and hard-working thinkers and doers.
We’re working for a world where people and the planet are treated as indisposable - and businesses and communities thrive without all the waste.
We invite you to create this future with us.
At Upstream, we believe in the power of inspirational invitation. Within the larger plastic pollution and reuse movements, we are conveners, alchemists, and story-tellers working to catalyze and amplify solutions for the better world already being built. We foster a culture of creative action where a rich mix of talented people want to come, stay, connect as both colleagues and humans, and co-create a more beautiful, just world every day.
Over the past few years, Upstream has undergone a metamorphosis to maximize our ability to transform the US and Canada’s throw-away society to a culture of stewardship. As an organization, Upstream is unique in its singular focus on reuse, position as a thought leader, and access to a large network of stakeholders from the NGO, business, and government sectors. Given the distributed, small nature of our team and large geographic focus, we take a high level role and focus on serving the movement in a way that is impactful and scalable.
