Scotland’s Circular Future Makers Programme

Zero Waste Scotland is developing Scotland’s Circular Future Makers, a pilot programme designed to help 50 to 60 middle managers and mid-career professionals turn circular economy ambitions into practical business action. The programme will support participants to identify and test circular opportunities within their organisations, build confidence and change-making capability, overcome barriers to implementation, and influence decision-making through real-world business challenges. Alongside delivering value for participating organisations, the programme will generate insight into the factors that enable or hinder circular economy adoption across Scottish businesses. Zero Waste Scotland is seeking early engagement with potential delivery partners to help shape the programme design and delivery model. We are interested in organisations, partnerships or consortia with expertise in circular economy practice, business transformation, facilitation, coaching, peer learning, practical experimentation, and impact evaluation, and who can work collaboratively with Zero Waste Scotland to develop and deliver this innovative pilot programme.
