Social Media Video Content Creator

Salary: 65,000 AUD (prorata)

Load: 3 days a week, flexible

Type: Remote with option to shoot content at Sydney Blister Packs Processing Facility and/or work from Melbourne Office.

About Us:

Pharmacycle is the only blister pack recycling program in Australia that provides a full recycling solution from start to finish. Over the past 2 years we have built the largest network of collection points and recycled 35M blister packs.

Their make-up of materials such as plastic and aluminium makes them ineligible for kerbside recycling. Pharmacycle’s mission is to recycle every blister pack in Australia, and since its establishment in 2022, Pharmacycle has challenged the conventional approach to pharmaceutical waste management. 

Partnering with the likes of hospitals and pharmacies, there are now 400+ public drop-off points across the country. Our efforts have already diverted over 35 million blister packs from landfills, which is equivalent to 875 cubic meters of waste. 

At Pharmacycle, transparency is paramount. Once they receive the used blister packs, our state-of-the-art processing facility carefully sorts and separates the materials, achieving an impressive 100% material recovery rate. The separated aluminium and plastic are then sent to Australian manufacturers, where they are transformed into new eco-friendly products, completing the loop of the circular economy.

In an effort to encourage individuals and families to play an active role in recycling, Pharmacycle has introduced satchels and boxes made available to everyday households. By streamlining a scalable and sustainable solution for recycling pharmaceutical waste, Pharmacycle has made it easy to get everyone involved in the correct disposal of used and empty medicinal blister packs.
