* Collaborating with Experts: Work with external FEED/EPC contractors, engage in technical discussions, and ensure the highest standards in design and safety.
* Optimising Operations: Support and enhance the operation of pilot, demonstration, and commercial-scale facilities, ensuring continuous improvement and innovation.
Who We’re Looking For:
* BEng/MEng in Chemical Engineering, ideally Chartered or working towards it.
* Hands on experience in process engineering from development through to operations.
* Expertise in refinery, petrochemical, or chemical recycling design and familiarity with industry standards.
* Strong problem solving skills and the ability to communicate complex technical issues clearly.
* Bonus points for experience with simulation tools, project management, or team leadership.
Why Join DTR?
* Impact & Challenge: Lead process solutions that transform hard to recycle plastics into high value feedstocks, influencing both commercial projects and the wider industry.
* Career Growth & Leadership: Fas -track opportunities, including potential progression to Head of Technology within 12–18 months.
* Dynamic Technical Environment: Collaborate with a high performing HQ team in Oxford, supported by external partners and a culture of innovation.

* Competitive Compensation & Benefits: Salary £65–75k (flexible for exceptional candidates), discretionary performance bonus, equity potential, pension, and life assurance.
DTR’s first fully funded commercial project is scheduled to commence in Q2 2026 in Northern Europe.
