ABOUT US
Netcycler is a service for giving away and acquiring second-hand goods. It's a new way to make environmentally friendly consumption decisions by reducing purchases of new products. Acquiring second-hand items instead of buying new ones has several environmental benefits: it decreases the need for new raw materials, reduces green house gas emissions due to production and transport, and decreases the amount of waste that goes to landfills. Netcycler supports using existing products until the end of their life cycle. When you no longer need something, the service will find someone who does. It's an alternative for consumption centered lifestyle, an easy way to minimize shopping while still getting all you need.

I'm excited about having the opportunity to recruit and do business development within the Green/Cleantech sector. This combines both my passions for the Green Business movement and helping candidates find the ideal career opportunity.
