About Battery Council International :

At Battery Council International (BCI), our passion is supporting the companies that power our daily lives through energy storage solutions. We are the leading trade association for battery manufacturers and recyclers, and we are looking for a self-starter to join our small but rapidly growing team.

BCI is more than 100 years old, and has a rich history of supporting battery recycling, worker safety and product innovation. There has never been a more exciting time for our organization than right now, however, as new technologies and new applications challenge the old way of doing things.

We welcome new ideas and fresh perspectives. As the battery industry evolves, BCI is also challenging the old way of doing things to better serve our members around the world. Come join us in this exciting mission!
