Do you have proven experience operating balers or plant within a production or waste management environment?

At Viridor, we’re investing in state-of-the-art recycling facilities, allowing for a wider range of products to be recycled. Our Materials Recycling Facilities (MRFs) are some of the biggest and most advanced of their kind in Europe. Our MRFs across the UK use a combination of advanced mechanical sorting and manual quality control to separate materials into individual streams, ready to be put back to work. Our investment in technology allows us to operate at the highest quality, environmental, energy efficiency and health and safety standards.

Masons MRF is undergoing a complete facility rebuild and modernisation, following the award of a new 10 year contract from Suffolk County Council.

We are now looking to recruit a Fixed Plant Operative for our site that operates 24hrs, 5 days a week and the role could involve working shifts on a rota basis, 45 hours per week.

The Role:

The Fixed Plant Operative will ensure the safe and efficient control of the recycling balers via touch screen computer panels and CCTV displays, under the direction of the production supervisor. You will liaise with the site Maintenance Supervisors and other relevant departments within Viridor to ensure the balers run as effectively as possible, keeping the levels of materials in the bunkers in control whilst ensuring the materials are not mixed.

The Fixed Plant Operative will also ensure the equipment operates to maximum efficiency in a safe and controlled manner and that all occurrences interrupting operations are recorded formally.

The ideal Fixed Plant Operative:

  • Previous experience in a similar operational role or environment.
  • High concentration levels and attention to detail.
  • Good IT and computer operating skills.
  • Ability to maintain a good standard of administration, cost control and record keeping
  • Good knowledge of plant and machinery relevant to waste recycling and recovery
