Honestly none. Sometimes the call count can seem kind of hard, but when I focus I can easily go further than the required KPIs.Our Mission: To foster, sustain, and promote a diverse and inclusive culture where employees can be their authentic selves to develop innovative solutions that improve RoadRunner’s company culture, customer experience, and surrounding communities.
At RoadRunner Recycling, diversity, equity and inclusion are integral to who we are. Together, we strive to build an inclusive culture that encourages, supports and celebrates the diverse backgrounds, where all members of the RoadRunner community feel welcomed, valued, and respected and are empowered to celebrate and cultivate their differences to maximize their fullest potential experiences of our employees. We believe this is what drives innovation and brings us closer to the customers and communities we serve.
In 2014, our founder, Graham Rihn, believed there had to be a better way to improve the outdated, expensive and inefficient process of commercial recycling and waste management - And from this belief, RoadRunner was born.
A message from our CEO:
"There has to be a better way. We all want something better. A better way to store files, a better way to run payroll, a better way to find a ride home. These moments of wanting something better inspire or fulfill big ideas and transformational products. My desire for “a better way” involves recycling.
After spending five years in the industry, I developed an understanding of how the waste and recycling systems operated first-hand. It dawned on me that the “better way” comes down to logistics. By cutting costs and steps from the process of transporting materials to the right place in the right form, the materials can be recycled at a cost that is actually lower than their value.
I started RoadRunner to build a company solely focused on making waste and recycling massively more efficient. My vision for “a better way” starts and ends with logistics. We are heavily investing our time and resources in reinventing the process of recycling materials from the source (the business) to where they are sold, repurposed, or recycled.
By innovating around the concept of hauling, RoadRunner uses more cost-effective, data-driven logistics to lower customer expenses, create revenue with recyclables, and achieve client sustainability goals all at the same time."
