Project Manager CMH1 – Engineering & Procurement Coordination About Us – Circular Materials Circular Materials is an innovative clean-tech company focused on the recovery and valorisation of strategic metals and critical raw materials from industrial effluents. The company has developed and patented a proprietary technological platform for Supercritical Water Precipitation (SWaPTM) , capable of achieving recovery rates exceeding 99% , reducing toxic waste production, and minimizing environmental impact compared to traditional mining processes. In March 2025 , Circular Materials was selected by the European Commission as a Strategic Project under the Critical Raw Materials Act (CRMA) —one of only a few projects chosen in Italy and across Europe.

This recognition highlights our key role in strengthening the resilience of supply chains and developing a sustainable alternative to primary extraction.

Circular

Materials is currently executing an ambitious expansion plan at both the national and European levels, aimed at establishing a network of industrial hubs designed to treat large volumes of waste and transform them into secondary raw materials.

We partner with industrial companies to: Reduce disposal costs and environmental impact. Recover critical raw materials and reintegrate them into the production supply chain. Our goal is to build a new European industrial infrastructure for metal recovery, unlocking the value of existing industrial flows.

CMH1 is the company's first industrial plant and builds on the experience developed at CMH0, the demonstration and validation platform located in Cadoneghe, Padua, where activities related to feedstock qualification, process optimisation, automation,



traceability and operational consolidation of the proprietary SWaPTM technology are carried out. The selected candidate will report directly to the COO and will be responsible for overseeing the integrated progress of the CMH1 project, coordinating engineering, procurement, permitting, construction, commissioning and plant start‐up activities. The role involves a strong operational and multidisciplinary coordination component, with a particular focus on the management of technical project procurement and on the interface with internal teams, suppliers, contractors and external engineering companies.
