About Circular Economy & PackUKs role

The UK is committed to transitioning towards a more circular economy, keeping resources in use for longer, extracting maximum value from materials, reducing waste, and improving overall resource efficiency. The Circular Economy Directorate in Defra leads the development and delivery of strategy to support this ambition across the UK.

As part of this work, the UKs Extended Producer Responsibility for packaging (pEPR) scheme is shifting the full cost of managing household packaging waste away from taxpayers and local authorities and onto packaging producers, applying the polluter pays principle. This incentivises producers to use less and more sustainable packaging, helping to reduce pollution, cut carbon emissions, and accelerate progress towards a circular economy. PackUK is the organisation responsible for administering the pEPR scheme.

Lead on assessing PackUKs data requirements (for example, local authority performance data or data to assess PackUKs performance against its 5-Year Strategy) and developing plans to fill identified gaps. This will require assessment of data robustness, suitability of data sources for PackUKs intended use, and source limitations.
Support the delivery of a research and development project and the design of a call-for-evidence into future modulation factors to be applied to producer fees.
Develop and maintain PackUKs tracking of pEPR policy effects, gathering evidence to ensure the scheme is delivering on its intended outcomes.
Provide analytical support and capability to PackUK teams, helping the Directorate become a data-driven organisation.
Engage with external stakeholders across the packaging industry to gain further insights and gather evidence.
Collaborate with analytical teams within Defra Circular Economy Directorate, working together to build on each others expertise and existing workstreams.
Quality assure analysis undertaken for PackUK, ensuring outputs are robust under external scrutiny.
Support other team members and contribute to a positive and inclusive working environment.
