A truly circular city requires an inclusive and prosperous job market for all of its citizens. But what is a circular job? Who will be doing this work? And what skills can allow citizens to thrive in a circular economy? Circle Economy presents the report "Circular jobs and skills in the Amsterdam Metropolitan Area", the world's first regional deep-dive to explore the character of jobs and skills in the circular economy. The report was produced by Circle Economy and Erasmus University Rotterdam for the City of Amsterdam and Amsterdam Metropolitan Area.

This research provides insight into (1) the baseline situation of circular employment, (2) skills needed in the circular economy and (3) action perspectives for policy makers. This report summarises the key findings from the full report “jobs and skills in the MRA” that was originally pushed in Dutch. These insights and action perspectives from Amsterdam create valuable insights for other cities that want to prepare their workforce for the transition towards a circular economy.
