Maintenance Technician -Project Work

Are you a qualified engineer looking for your next role? We`re growing our engineering team with a brand new Project Engineering role. This is a permanent, full-time role (Monday to Friday), where you'll play a key part in ensuring our state-of-the-art, fully automated fridge recycling plant operates like a dream. Your mission? To keep our facilities running smoothly while setting new standards in the recovery of metals, plastics, and gases.

We process 100 fridges per hour, 700,000 per year. Our second site is a fully automated plastic recycling facility where we combine sink-float technology and electrostatic separation to turn mixed fridge plastics into high-quality recycled products.

At AO Recycling, we are committed to extracting as much value as possible from the waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) that is thrown away by UK households every year. We are growing rapidly and so with that, opportunities to develop and try new approaches become aplenty. If you are energetic, hands-on, innovative, and professional, this is the environment for you.

Here's What You Can Expect To Be Doing

No two days are ever the same at AO Recycling, but here’s a taste of what you’ll get up to :

• Working Monday to Friday day shifts
• Gaining in depth knowledge of our process and plant and contributing ideas for further optimisation
