We are currently looking for a Technician (Aggregates and Asphalt) to join our friendly team based at Tarmac Clitheroe Asphalt Plant, Clitheroe, Lancashire. This role is easily accessible from Blackburn, Burnley, Nelson, Skipton, Preston Haslingden and the surrounding areas.
Here at Tarmac, we are working hard to create a dynamic and inclusive environment and it’s important that our people come from a variety of different backgrounds.
Main Responsibilities
Reporting directly to the Senior Technician, the role of Technician (Aggregates and Asphalt) will be responsible for:
* Sampling and testing of various construction materials (aggregates and asphalt) on a daily basis where accuracy will be paramount.
* Testing will be carried out to the highest safety standards and within your manual handling capabilities
* At times, visiting other Tarmac sites to carry out various sampling and testing duties
* The majority of material testing carried out within the laboratory, which will include ovens, furnaces, sieves (with a mechanical shaker), weighing apparatus, chemicals and other scientific based equipment
* Ensuring the quality of the materials is monitored at all times for both internal and external customers
* Adhering to company Health and Safety procedures at all times
