Are you someone who lives and breathes high performance, leads with ambition, and would like to be part of an organisation that looks after tomorrow? Viridor has a redefined purpose, a bold new Vision, and an ambitious, market-leading strategy. We are investing in the future, and we need a talented team with exceptional people, who believe in each other, to help us achieve this.

Join us, as we rise to the challenge and build a world where nothing goes to waste

Viridor is at the forefront of waste management and resource recovery in the UK, operating the largest network of Energy Recovery Facilities (ERFs). We play a crucial role in supporting the UK's climate goals by diverting waste from landfills and transforming it into valuable energy resources. 

We have an opportunity in Trident Park for an EC&I Engineer to join our team working 40 hours per week, Monday to Friday.

The salary for this role will be circa £60,000 per year, and participation in an annual bonus scheme, in addition to our great range of benefits.

The closing date for applications is 3rd October 2024. We encourage all applicants to apply as soon as possible as we may close vacancies early if we receive a high number of applications.

Energy Recovery Facilities are vital in supporting the UK’s ambition to reduce waste in an efficient and effective manner, helping to reduce the impact of waste on climate change. After reducing, reusing and recycling as much as possible, our Energy Recovery Facilities (ERFs) provide the infrastructure to efficiently recover energy from residual waste, meaning landfill becomes the last resort. 

Joining our team and reporting to the Engineering and Maintenance Manager, the EC&I Engineer will be responsible for all aspects of the mechanical engineering and maintenance on site in co-operation with the Mechanical Engineers. Your goal is to ensure optimal long-term availability of the plant, and you will work closely with the site teams to preserve the value of the assets and to meet set health and safety, environmental and financial targets.

In your role, you will be responsible for all electrical, controls and instrumentation engineering, alongside the efficient planning and execution of maintenance activities associated with the ERF plant, including the stores and workshops management.  You will also use your engineering expertise and guidance to help others develop their skills.

Our ideal Electrical, Control and Instrumentation Engineer:

  • Knowledge of repair methods of EC&I machinery and equipment.
  • Experience in working with Permits to Work and Safe System of Work
  • Experience in supervising teams and contractors to deliver agreed Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s)
