Up to £82,000 Basic Salary | Up to £35 Per Hour | Overtime Available

If you're an experienced Plant Fitter who's tired of being underpaid for keeping critical machinery running, this could be exactly what you're looking for.

This is a rare opportunity offering up to £35 per hour, equating to a basic salary of up to £82,000 per year, working permanent night shifts within a busy and highly automated waste and recycling operation.

The site relies heavily on its engineering team, which means you'll be valued, trusted, and rewarded for the impact you make.

What You'll Be Doing

Your job is simple: keep the plant running.

You'll be carrying out maintenance, fault-finding and repairs across a wide range of mobile and static equipment to ensure production never stops for longer than necessary.

Expect to work on:

Loading shovels
Waste handlers
Mobile shredders
Skid steer loaders
Forklifts
Conveyor systems
Vibrating screens
Air separation equipment
Magnets and recycling plant machineryWhen breakdowns happen, you'll be the engineer that gets things back up and running.

When machinery starts showing signs of wear, you'll spot it before it becomes a costly failure.
