PureCycle Technologies adds director of special events procurement

PureCycle Technologies Inc., a polypropylene recycler based in Orlando, Florida, has added 25-year tech veteran Bill Flutie to its management team as director of special events procurement. Flutie will oversee stadiums, festivals, events and universities to develop sustainability initiatives for PureCycle with a focus on the Florida market.

"Bill brings over 25 years of experience to our management team," says PureCycle CEO Mike Otworth. "His passion for clean oceans and drive to revolutionize the transformation of waste into sustainable products will continue to push PureCycle ahead of the game."

Before joining PureCycle, Flutie was the vice president of sales and marketing for Riversoft, a leader in home health care agency software. Prior to that, he worked with Agere Systems, formerly Lucent Microelectronics (now LSI Logic), which designs, manufactures, sells and licenses Agere IP products. Flutie was part of the founding team of a successful electronic manufacturers' representative company, Integrated Technology Inc. He also has held senior sales positions at Global IP Solutions, Philips-Signetics and Seven-Ten Storage. Flutie holds a bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering from Brown University.

"My two passions in life are sports and the love of the ocean. I live in a beach community, and it saddens me to see the plastic waste that washes ashore," Flutie says. "In my role with PureCycle, I work with professional and college sports programs to recycle plastic which keeps it out of landfills and waterways, so I get to focus on both passions at the same time."
