What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply my deep environmental compliance and waste-management expertise to drive sustainability, ESG integration, and circular-economy solutions while contributing to business development and stakeholder engagement.

I am an environmental engineer with over 25 years of hands-on experience across industry, consulting, and business development, combining strong technical expertise with practical site engineering and regulatory compliance. I have led hazardous waste operations, conducted environmental auditing and permitting, and authored technical reports in both Turkish and English.

My career includes roles from plant operation and R&D to senior consulting and project management for national and multinational projects, including ESIA, ESHS due diligence, POPs elimination, and zero-waste initiatives. I have worked closely with public authorities, private stakeholders, and international experts to deliver measurable outcomes.

I recently expanded into business development and team leadership while continuing freelance consulting on national ecolabelling, deposit system design, and waste-management policy, and I stay current in energy management, carbon accounting, and circular-economy practices.
