What is a waste auditor?

Waste auditors are professionals who assess and analyze the types and quantities of waste produced by organizations or facilities. Their main role is to conduct waste audits, which involve sorting, measuring, and documenting waste streams to identify opportunities for waste reduction, recycling, and improved disposal practices. By providing detailed reports and recommendations, waste auditors help companies improve their sustainability, comply with regulations, and often reduce costs associated with waste management.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a waste auditor, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Waste Auditor, you need a solid understanding of waste management practices, data analysis, and environmental regulations, often supported by a background in environmental science or a related field. Familiarity with waste tracking software, auditing tools, and relevant certifications such as SWANA or LEED Green Associate is typically required. Strong attention to detail, analytical thinking, and effective communication are valuable soft skills for conducting accurate audits and reporting findings. These skills are crucial for ensuring regulatory compliance, identifying waste reduction opportunities, and supporting sustainability initiatives.

What are some common challenges waste auditors face during site inspections, and how can they be addressed?

Waste Auditors often encounter challenges such as incomplete or mislabeled waste streams, limited access to disposal areas, and varying cooperation levels from staff during site inspections. Addressing these challenges involves clear communication with site personnel, thorough preparation with detailed checklists, and adaptability in the field to handle unexpected conditions. Building rapport with facility teams and providing education about proper waste segregation can also help ensure more accurate and efficient audits.

While both roles are essential in waste management, they differ in responsibilities, certifications, and work environments.

We partner with businesses across a variety of industries to streamline waste operations, verify vendor billing, ensure contract compliance, and deliver reliable financial reporting.

You will review & analyze monthly waste invoices, compare charges against contracts, prepare client billing, identify errors or credits, and ensure all financial data remains aligned with client agreements.

This position is fully onsite at our Geneva, IL office. This is not a remote or hybrid eligible role as it requires consistent on-site attendance.

Cross-Functional Coordination

  • Communicate professionally with vendors and internal teams
  • Support CRM and financial system updates to ensure accurate service and billing data


What Weโ€™re Looking For

Weโ€™re looking for someone who is comfortable with numbers, follows structured processes, and enjoys reviewing documents for accuracy. Waste industry experience is not required- we will train you- but attention to detail, reliability, and a willingness to learn are essential.


Skills & Attributes

  • Exceptional attention to detail and accuracy
  • Strong comfort with numbers and spreadsheets
  • Highly organized and process-driven
  • Able to read and compare invoices, rate sheets, and service descriptions
  • Clear, professional written communication
  • Curious, investigative mindset when something doesn't look right
  • Works independently while keeping the team informed
  • Consistent, reliable, and able to manage records across multiple accounts

Preferred Experience

  • 2+ years in billing, auditing, AR/AP, utilities, logistics, financial operations, or similar fields
  • Proficiency in Excel (sorting, filters, basic formulas, lookups)
  • Experience reviewing multi-page invoices or service-based billing
  • CRM experience (Salesforce is a plus, but not required)


Compensation & Benefits

We offer competitive compensation based on your experience and the value you bring to the team.


Pay Range: The hourly pay range for this role starts $25-$34 with the final rate determined by experience and qualifications. This is a full-time, hourly position, with an expected 40-hour work week.
