We need someone who is ready to roll up their sleeves. Your "office" will often be Ports, Waste Facilities, and Power Stations.

On the Road: You will travel regularly across the UK for sampling and collection. This involves driving company vehicles (up to 3.5-tonne vans) to client sites. Whether you're working at our base location or away, you'll be part of a tight-knit team that encompasses our core values: Expertise, Ambition, Collaboration and Trust.
The Schedule: This role works on a shift pattern and requires considerable working away on a rotational basis. Because the industry moves fast, travel can sometimes be required at the last minute.
The Hands-on Work: You'll be collecting, sampling and sorting of all fuel streams such as Coal, Waste and Biomass
Precision: You'll prepare these samples for the lab, ensuring everything is recorded accurately and safely.
The Environment: You'll be working outdoors in various weather conditions and industrial settings, following clear safety procedures to keep yourself and the team safe.

We are looking for someone reliable who can adapt to changing priorities. You don't need a science degree-we value a "can-do" attitude and a strong work ethic above all else.
A Full UK Driving Licence
Reliability: You are comfortable with regular travel and working away from home on rotation.
Team Spirit: You're a team player who works well with others and shows respect to everyone you meet on-site.
Communication: Good enough numeracy and IT skills to log your data accurately (we use Microsoft and Google apps).
Integrity: You are open, honest, and take pride in doing a job properly.
We'd love to see experience in industrial, waste, or port sectors, but it isn't a dealbreaker.
Previous experience in inspection or sample preparation is a plus, but we provide the training you need to succeed
