About The Role
Are you a qualified engineer looking for your next role? We’re growing our engineering team with a new Project Engineering role. This is a permanent, full-time role (Monday to Friday), where you'll ensure our state-of-the-art, fully automated fridge recycling plant operates smoothly. Your mission? To keep our facilities running efficiently while setting new standards in the recovery of metals, plastics, and gases.
We process 100 fridges per hour, totaling 700,000 annually. Our second site is a fully automated plastic recycling facility using sink-float technology and electrostatic separation to produce high-quality recycled plastics.
At AO Recycling, we aim to maximize value from waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) discarded by UK households annually. We are rapidly expanding, offering opportunities to develop and implement new approaches. If you are energetic, hands-on, innovative, and professional, this environment is for you.

* Working Monday to Friday day shifts
* Gaining in-depth knowledge of our processes and contributing ideas for optimization
* Participating in engineering projects, new installations, and refurbishments
* Carrying out equipment commissioning and testing
* Conducting dynamic risk assessments and maintaining safety standards

* An excellent communicator, both written and verbal
* Highly organized with good planning skills
* Knowledgeable about Environmental, Health & Safety regulations and safe systems of work
