Maintenance Manager

Emterra Group is a leader in providing
integrated recycling resource management and waste disposal solutions to the
industrial, commercial and institutional (ICI) sectors and municipalities throughout
Canada. Our view of waste management means maximizing recycling and waste
diversion. Whether you see it as garbage, waste, trash, rubbish or junk,
we see waste another way – as a resource to be collected and recycled into new,
usable products. From tire recycling to liquid waste – we turn waste into
resources.
