The roles are aimed at professionals passionate about environmental sustainability, community-driven development, and youth engagement in the Himalayan belt.

About the Hiring Drive

With growing waste management challenges in hilly and mountainous terrains, Waste Warriors continues to expand its on-ground teams to build resilient systems and empower local communities. The current hiring call includes two distinct roles that reflect the organization's dual focus: operational excellence in waste management and grassroots youth mobilization.

  • Coordinating closely with panchayats, local communities, and government stakeholders

  • Monitoring project progress, budgets, and reporting requirements

  • Building resilient waste management systems suited to challenging mountain terrain

  • Driving data-led decisions and sustainable local solutions

This position is ideal for candidates with strong project management skills, stakeholder coordination experience, and a genuine interest in environmental and rural development work. Experience with data-driven reporting and budget management would be a strong advantage.

2. Youth Movement Coordinator, Dehradun

This role focuses on building and mobilizing youth communities around climate action and civic engagement. Core responsibilities include:

  • Curating engaging experiences, events, and spaces for young people

  • Connecting young changemakers to relevant opportunities and platforms

  • Supporting on-ground initiatives, events, and project delivery
